Part 2
In all of these process and repair attempts, I never read from you, I can't get the system to not bleed air (actually combustion by products)
The instant you posted here that you were getting air bubbles ("microbubbles") that many repeated attempts at bleeding did not eliminate, COMPLETELY AND PERMANENTLY, I knew you had a head gasket leak, but it could be a cracked head or block depending on how badly and how many times it had overheated. You have air inthe cooling system which is pushed in by combustion pressure, essentially the same thing as exhaust but coming into you cooling system, not out the tailpipe.
Had I known that any point that you could not get the cooling system bled properly (show me a quote where you posted THAT FACT) I would have posted head gasket.
In earlier posts you stated that you had tested for that and it passed.
It may have passed when you tested it (not questioning your statement) but it could still
FAIL when the engine was running at normal operating temperatures, much more likely at 230+ degrees.
The kind of gasket failure I think you have (which can never be absolutely proven until you have the head gasket inyour hand and inspect it) is one where the coolant does NOT enter the combustion chamber which would manifest itself as lots of white smoke on start up and loss of coolant.
This is what xyz (COVERED UP) by running his cooling fans constantly. HE NEVER FIXED THE PROBLEM THAT CAUSED THE COOLANT TO MAGICALLY DISAPPEAR) He did state this in his post. He did not FIX the problem which is not a legitimate repair.
Now his solution is much better than melting your engine which you will do and fairly quickly if you allow the problem to go un resolved and continue to drive the car in the circumstances where you have to drive a longer distance and climb that grade.
