something else is wrong now

after repairing my tire that somebody had slashed,(3 weeks later) my car is overheating now, so i start it without the radiator cap on and fill it with water it will run under 1/4 temp untill i put the cap on then it tries to stall and the temp will rise to about half before i repeat the process again also while it tries to stall i keep my finger on the throttle it sounds like its running on one rotor and the other one is flickering on every other second somebody please get me some info thanx,

ps - its a 88 s4 n/a

yes it does i used block sealer and its running a lil better, but do you think maybe that one rotor is flickering because of maybe one of the primary injector wires could of shorted or somthing like the injector is clogged?
