- While running to hot, is the cooling fan running at high speed?
- Where was the coolant leak, thus the need for the stop leak?

Did this overheating and AC issue start after the stop leak was added?

Since you were not able to reply to the info request I sent. I cannot be as accurate and thorough as I would like. I hope what I can provide does help.
If the stop leak started this failure then I would replace the thermostat and flush out the cooling system to remove the stop leak.
