A buddy of mine poured some of that headgasket repaiar crap in and didn't follow the directions 4 grand later he wished he woulda just did a head gasket hahahaha. But seriously the best advice I can give is goy spen 20 bucks for a good cap and see if that's the prob or pressurize the coolant system with about 15 pounds of shop air see if it holds that will tell you if its mor then the cap

yeah you can rod the cores... it'll clean out any deposit from the cores but that involves taking atleast one tank off. if you have alittle extra money to spend go to a radiator shop and price out a new core for it. rodding and then resoldering the tank back on is cheaper and will make your money go further.
