Mind blown over COOLING/ over heating issue
ya it doesn’t continue to overheat since it was
open system with the funnel but it will when it continues to spit air in the coolant and over pressurize. It over heats because it spits out water then takes air in exchange of it. That’s why it runs for a good 30-40 miles.. time to dump in the liquid magic lol aka head gasket sealer.

LOL don't go that route! I used (many, many years back) leak sealers and they ended up clogging up my radiator. In one car I owned that had a nagging leak, I used a leak sealer and after about 6 months I had to rebuild the radiator because it clogged it up. Also, if it is a head gasket, you will probably need to get your heads machined. Hopefully it's not a head gasket, but the problem you are describing unfortunately sounds like that is what is most likely the issue
its head/gasket. Got my moneys worth out of the car. It’s either worth $1000 or 3-4K if the sealer works. It has 225k miles on It. Not worth a proper fix. Already have a new car but I’d drive it a good month before selling for a decent price to know it’s reliable before doing so. Best case to hope it’s a super small leak. Stop leak is not ideal but works in these kind of situations I’ve seen/had good results in the past
