Don't put "Stop Leak" in ANY cooling system (nothing peculiar to
DeLo). Is super glue, JB Weld, and goodness knows what else rolled
into one. Usually stops up everything EXCEPT radiator (well, that's
not true. Will stop up the little cooling passages, which are the
important parts, but leave side channels unaffected, which is where
leak usually is).

Mechanic buddy once pulled what looked like big grey sausage out of a
water jacket. Was wayward Stop Leak.

He calls it "Stop Up".

Note that a stopped up water jacket will also trap air.
