I did this on a 2006 Rav4 and worked great! I did a complete radiator flush first, left the thermostat in and poured it into the overflow tank. My overflow drains directly down into the rad so I figured it was safe. Rad + block holds 7.2 liters so I added 5 liters then the gasket sealer then topped off while running. Runs better than it has in years, even leveled off my fuel trim numbers.
