oil got into my radiator im pretty sure its from the blown head gasket. the issue is tho that its getting rusty in there. i want to try a gasket sealer but idk if i should do it while there is rust in my radiator. im thinking maybe i should do a radiator flush first and then do the gasket sealer.. what do you think?
vortex- thanks for the help. junking it is not an option. i already have a new car. my caprice is my project.
 
Your only option is to have the head gasket replaced. The ONLY people who use a pour-in -sealant are unscrupulous auto dealers who want to hide the problem in order to sell the vehicle.

If you use a sealer, the "fix" will not last and you will wind up having to cook out your engine, radiator or worse yet - replace them. 88 Chevy Caprice - junk it and buy another car - it's not worth the $1000 + shop fee. Sorry.
