Possible head gasket coolant leak? or ? 200

Your compression numbers and plugs looked good. If none of the piston tops were cleaner than the others, you may not have a problem. I would be concerned that the engine may not be reaching its full operating temp.

I would change out the thermostat and the radiator. Stop Leak is never good.
