started out with a leaking radiator,tried stop leak 2 or 3 times.long story short, replaced radiator,started having overheating problems.replaced hoses,t-stat,waterpump and radiator cap.still overheating. bypassed heater core,still overheats.no air in system,still overheats.what i was wondering is it possible that i clogged my cooling system by using too much stop leak and if so how do i unclog it

Is the radiator new? How hot is it getting in degrees F? Can you test for coolant flow? Are there any over-heating issues besides the temp gage?
