Ron I am in Dallas looking for a honest mechanic

+Chris Samurai - On the Bottle it said you DO NO need to remove the Thermostat! I think in his case, it's too much! In the Video, he stated that his Coolant was blowing out if Tile Pipe and you can see tons of it. NOTE: In my case, it was small leaks and it worked in 25 Minutes! Here is the Video I made: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b551eaqIttnOnWg.html

Thank you.

did it overheat at some point or is it low on coolant?

It low on coolant

+Erica Mccall yea it's probably blown you can pull the spark plugs and see if there is mosture in there. if you clean them all out it may start but it will just happen again. also check your radiator cap the rubber seal may be damaged wich caused the water to boil out and overheat the engine....however that won't fix a blown head gasket the damage is already done.

Yea I agree. He probably should have drained all the old coolant out first. And it probably wouldn't have hurt to change the clogged hose before attempting to use steel seal. We just ordered a bottle. I also heard that you should first drain the radiator, remove the thermostat, remove the spark plug that is wet with coolant, then add steel seal and a gallon of distilled water (it has to be distilled), turn heater on max. Let it run for 60 minutes. Then let cool off for about 30 min. Once it does the job, I heard you should drive for 500-1000 miles then flush again and put in regular coolant. Not Dexcool or Extended Life Coolant (SS is not compatible with these). People who have done it this way have gotten better results than those who just poured SS in and drove. I hope this works for us and anybody else.

LadySharlaMane true

my 97bonniville wont start anymOre Its blOwIng OUt whIte smOKe and i need cylinder 3 what ever that means please help

I would recommend getting a mechanic or friend who works on car to check it out. if you have a lemon law in your state I think you have 30 days and you can make the previous owner return it if they sold you a bad vehicle (never used this just reserch your state laws)

+Erica Mccall white smoke is a sign of blown head gasket. Look in the radiator and see if it's bubbling looks like boiling. If it is it's a blown head gasket.

No the hole is too big replace the head gasket!

Freddy Rivera ok will this stuff right here work

Asking

Autopartswarehouse.com And no I live in san antonio texas im sorry.

WHO'S KNW

That's right Steel seal will only work when its very minor leak.

+FayeAnn Anderson possibly your water pump, if so you need to fix it fast or risk blowing the engine....

AGREE

HOW does it damage the engine ? Fixing Tough Head Gasket Leaks .

AZ DONALD the block has small ports that runs to ports on the head that circulate's the water from the block to the head he head gasket is there to seal not only the combustion chamber but ports between the head and the block if there clogged it will build up way to much presser and either crack the head or the block if left to long its better just to replace the gasket

not only that, but if the gasket is busted where the combustion chamber is, not only is oil getting into the combustion chamber, but the gasket fixer as well, which will damage the piston rings, and crankshaft friction bearings. which in this products humble return leaves you with over $4000 in repairs to the engine.

Matt Mills Snake oil!

Look at his piece of shit. I wouldn't waste the money $$

You don't use Bars leak! it is only for crate motors (v8) and I will answer your question about not heater core. Bypass your heater hose to your engine block and it will create more circulation for the coolant to flow better chance to seal it and make sure you remove your thermostat out.

+Ariel Asturias - Good point!

You catch the bus THEN sucker.

AGREE

Run it without the thermostat in it, I have used steel seal before and it worked very well.

Running it without the thermostats even worse. the enginge wont have anything to help rugulate its temperature. shit can hit the fan. examples like eventually getting missfires, coolant temperature errors in the computer codes, wich will damage the ecm/pcm, no pressure on the coolant system resulting in too cold/hot engine, damage to the heater cor, and worse case senerio, cracked engine block, and etc etc.

+Matt Mills, I obviously meant run the engine without the thermostat only during the sealant process. It would also be a good idea to run the engine without the spark plug where the head gasket is blown. Common sense goes a long way, the idiot in this video obviously let the engine run extremely hot by not keeping an appropriate amount of coolant available.

That would make more sense. But i still prefer replacing the gasket. cause in the long run, shit will eventually break again.

Matt Mills what if you dont have the money and trying to get rid of the peice of shit

dang I hope you have a nice car lol

WOW that high I fixed mine for around $600 no shop only took head to machine shop then did work myself.

You have put this on about every head gasket repair video. Troll
