Wtffff they want 950 here in Houston on my Lincoln.

Yep. My best friend since 1977 is one of the best mechanics in the state. He fixes all my shit for cheap and I get to stay for supper!!!!!

Just got a estimate for mine ,$425.00

Haha they try to quote me 2300$ like yeah no thanks I’ll use the bars leak to get to bama instead

Did your vehicle overheat over the summer? This stuff has always scared me. It could easily clog up the rest of your system. And if you're trying to sell your car, a lot of people look to see if the coolant looks metallic. If it does usually it will drop the resale value of your car because someone used stop leak

Worked for my heater core still working a year later

How's it holding up?

same I used less then I was supposed to today and it totally worked,,the thought of taking my dash out to find the leak,,

It's been a year since that comment and wondering if it still held up? I have an 06 Fusion 145000 miles and I can smell the antifreeze. I dont wanna take the dash apart, rather temp fix it til I buy another vehicle.

@@gregatron4528 did you or anyone here try it?

did it block your heater core or radiator ?

It blocked mine . My heater core and radiator

no@@michaelmartinez9602

no@@freemindas

Or at least easier to get to without taking the whole dash out.

They dont want. This is how economics works. Money flow.

not sure they can send a man to the moon

@@MrAgatto2 they lost the technology to do it they said lol or accidentally destroyed it true story we currently don't have the capability of going to the moon again according to nasa

Lol 😆 🤣

I was surprised it worked. I was kinda doing it just for the novelty of it!

InvalidZero still holding up?

Did it work for you

@@kylem8702 Yes it did I disconnected the two hoses then go to the heater core and I flush the whole system out with a garden hose. After that I took the thermostat out drain the whole system put antifreeze in

So is it good?

You should use Liquid glass for headgaskets, but remember to use it with distilled water only

I've been through a couple heater cores over the years in various things.

It’s been 3 months since you said this did it work for you without any additional problems it may of caused?

@@adultminds4016 hey there, it Actually worked really good, I didn't have any more leaks or anything else. I think it's mainly used if it's not that big of a leak. It won't fix something seriously huge.

@@SlinkyBKZ I took my car to car wash yesterday then got leak in radiator I think it’s there strong chemicals and maybe I didn’t wash the front off good enough idk really but does your heat still work fine? seen allot of people saying it blocks heater core

@@SlinkyBKZ and should I add whole bottle into the v6 or small amounts until it stops? Thanks!

@@adultminds4016 hmmm I'm not sure, my heat works fine, but I think alot of the forums I read were people not actually using the product like they are supposed to. For me it worked great, I actually ended up using the full bottle. But make sure you read the instructions and follow them to a T!

i was wondering same thing... i dont want to put it in m whole system , just on heatercore , then flush it if it works and cancle the bypass...have you tried it ?

You'd have to have heat and pressure.

Update?

Did it work boss?

From an online GM forum. "Leaking coolant from a cracked intake manifold gasket is an extremely common problem on most GM vehicles made from the late 90s to the mid-2000s. Most experts agree that the problem stems from GM's "DexCool" coolant, which reacts with the intake manifold gasket, causing it to leak coolant."

This wasn't much of a fix. This was cheating!

Danny Lopez probably

Didnt work for me been in for 2 weeks ,disappointed

@Larry Davisson your thermastat could be getting old too

What about now my friend

Still isn't leakin

@@syxxes nice pickup is the heater core still dry?

@@kevinsanders320 They say it smells like sweet syrup, but I don’t find it very appetizing. It smells more like electrical burning to me. I had to go sniff my pancake syrup to compare. 😂

Does it work if cracked block?

@@johnnykurplutzo6789 It might , a friend used it on a old tractor that was leaking coolent into the oil after sitting below zero with not enough antifreeze ,and it worked.

@@davidrussell8918 that sounds satanic. Thanx

I was kinda doing it just for the novelty of it. Paid I think 10 bucks or something for that bottle when the heater core is only 40$ and an hour of time xD. The product surprised me!

@Larry Davisson Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do in a emergency situation. I get it

Sure pal. Try that in Vermont when it's 5 below

Not seeing anything leaking, but still having to top up the coolant every now and then. Partial success?

@@syxxes probably a leaking intake gasket, chevys are notorious for that. If you know what your doing, which I don't, my neighbor is a mechanic and he replaced mine in about an hour. It would have takin me way longer.

It's helped. I'm not totally convinced it stopped the leak. Might have slowed it down, but not seeing coolant on the floor- still have to top it up though

@@syxxes , there's a chance you have a failing head gasket that has a pinhole leak into the cooling lines. When you open the radiator cap, are you seeing a steady stream of bubbles coming up? I used a similar product (bar's leaks liquid aluminum). It sealed the leak in the core (no heat in the winter sucks!). The fix has been holding up for about a month now, although the heater seems to be weaker than usual lately. Gonna backflush the core because it's probably clogged. Also, the thermostat is hesitant to open up while the vehicle is warming up at idle, although blipping the throttle gets that taken care of. It's unfortunate that such a cheap part is so expensive to replace due to the amount of labor involved in getting at it.

You will have to remove the upper radiator hose, after the engine is cool of course, and add it to the rad directly.

@@jeremypaluck4246 Thanks a lot.

My heat always worked. Haven't seen any leaks since. Check your coolant level, or the core may need a flush

I don't understand why this comment has so many ellipsis

@@syxxes sorry..my brother....what i am saying is....your truck...is still on the run....because you applied with this product to your radiator.....i have a bad experience about a stop leak product....my engine is completly.shut down after i applied to it.....you understand now?

@@jamesark9926 still my daily driver

Weird how its been working for two years tho, eh?

@@syxxes You got lucky it plugged my heater core right away. I wouldn't put that in ever again

paulhickinson did you check your thermostat to see if that was broken?

No, dexcool does. The orange coolant. When in car it has a life of around 5 years. Where as green could have gone in in the 70's and no problems at all.

Brendin Heyd Most vehicle manufacturers call for the coolant to be replaced every couple of years or so. If everyone did that, they wouldn’t have that problem. I, nor anyone I know, has ever had a problem with DEXCOOL, so long as it is properly mixed.

It can actually develop an electrical current and cause electrolysis, similar to how the salt and water makes your car rust. And yes, tons of people use dexcool and have no problem, but the fact that you need to change it more often alone makes it an inferior product and I can't imagine why anyone would choose to use it still.

No your block is made out of iron or steel, with time it rusts the water and all that.

The heater core is connected to the radiator lol. You can pick and choose which one it goes into as the coolant flows through both 🤣

@@hightechredneck3 no shit. The heater core is much weaker than a radiator. You didn't think that through did ya. Light bulb

Just to replace it was 40 bucks on Amazon

@@originalmicdrop he's actually a pretty good guy, they use this program that says this job takes x number hours...i assume a newbie might take the whole time or longer, one of the old guys might can do it in a short time...pls...let me live in my fantasy world of him being a good good guy!

Daniel Jackson bro a heater core shouldn’t take no longer than thirty minutes- hour to replace . All you really do is drain the fluid from the lever on the bottom of radiator and then start taking lines/hoses apart.

-ƁÄƤHØMƐƬ1x- , are you insane, the heater core is INSIDE THE DASH, you’ll have to remove the whole dash. What are you talking about...it cost anywhere from 1400 to 1800 dollars to replace the heater core.........

@@danieljackson8411 ......that guys a fuckin rip off

That's pretty impressive it held up that long!

Cj Noldner, you are A SCAMMER....

@@pauljohn6546 lol

Work?😊

Anton Langford most likely premature failure and the stop leak was the icing on top

Yea, burn the truck

Anton Langford, you’ll need to flush your heater core...

Hi: @@pauljohn6546 - I did that and it worked OK, Have traded the car in for one that uses less gas. Thank you for your help, Cheers, Anton

Have to turn heat full tilt . Or will seal it closed . Buddy did it to his jeep . I used on my elantra had heat full tilt and it works as well as cold

Yup

My heater core is leaking and I’m not wasting my time with this. My heater core is clogged. I have no heat. I’m mad because I had my Evap changed in the summer and the shop didn’t bother to recommend I replace the heater core. Now it’s winter and I have no heat

There's lots of home brew methods out there!

Syxxes Performance sure is. Usually put cinnamon in the mining truck when they leak and the mechanics won't fix it. Then when they are going to fix it weeks later it ain't been leaking for weeks haha

TossLol That's awesome! I've heard Cinnamon, pepper and a raw egg. Never have tried any of them though

Put 20k on the truck since then bud, working like a charm. Everyone has their opinion on it.

WRONG!!!!!

@@syxxes Update?

@@Bluelightbandit still workin.
