This stuff absolutely works …I had a blown head gasket on a Mitsubishi and pour this stuff in only once…..I kept driving this car for over a year but it was 13 years old I had already purchased a new car so I just sold it but it was rolling and no running hot issue’s so. It’s definitely worth it if you need to buy yourself some time

can you just pour that in? or do you need antifreeze or another liquid?
@Careless-sv6cf7 ай бұрын
@@paul_ezmamaa it depends on the brand. Some brands like blue devil requires you to bleed out your coolant and fill your radiator with water to add it in. Other brands requires you use antifreeze with their product and some say either water or coolant is fine. Just gotta read the instructions.

@Jav M I used the product(with coolant and thermostat installed) but it didn't work for me, The coolant expansion tank keeps overfilled after a short drive. I ended up replacing the head gasket but after 5 months started to overheat again... After that, I decided to use BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer the right way As a last try before replacing the engine. I drained the coolant, removed the thermostat, and flushed it with water. After that filled with distilled water and BlueDevil and keeps it idle for 1 hour... I used the car for two weeks without a thermostat and had no issues... Then I replaced the thermostat with a cooler one at 80° c (the original is 100° c) So far 6 weeks of this work and there is no overheating or expansion tank overfill.
