How to “Easily” fix a blown head gasket. Anyone can do it 👍

[@michaelfanning1306]

My friend used a stop leak for his radiator on a 2008 Buick Lucerne same brand, Blue Devil, i had no expectation that it woukd work. While the engine was running steam was coming out of the driver side of the radiator. He let it idle for a while and then drove it for a couple of hours........it worked, doesn't leak a drop now. 4-18-24 update, it started leaking again after a month or so.

[@melancholypuppy3595]

After a month now the car needs to be junked or traded in

[@Pr0ph3cy-k5z]

Did he follow the instructions exactly as it is listed? Removing the thermostat and flushing out the system with water?

[@Pr0ph3cy-k5z]

I used it in my old 98 ford f150. It stopped the head gasket leak for 7 years. I sold it and have stayed in touch with the buyer that said he wanted to see if he could blow it up. It still runs 😂.

[@energyyy8742]

@@AlphaT2Deltawas the engine already messed up? Recently I found out my head gasket was blown and had a radiator leak. I still drove my car that way and it eventually overheated. The car turned off ,so when I checked ,I had no coolant in my reservoir, so I added what I had which is water. That was able to start my car and a trip to autozone which I bought coolant. After I put in the coolant I was on my way back home until my car started to smoke up and I couldn’t start my car anymore, so I had to toll it.

This. If replacing the head gasket, engine, or car altogether is at all an option for you, that's the actual fix because this stuff can destroy your engine if it goes wrong, but if your only choices are scrap the car and walk or roll the dice on blue devil? Roll the dice.

[@Jeff-x3p]

If your about to sell car for scrap, might as well try at least cheap version of this stuff. Works best on Toyota for some reason or smaller engines. The first car i did this to a Corolla was blowing crazy white clouds. It eventually worked and put another 150k on car before something else went. I also had success on a toyota 4 runner v6. I tried on 3 American cars with v8 engines and didn't even help even a little. I think they create too much pressure!Actually made it worse and some types gets messy. You can clean out when doing head gaskets. Most importantly gotta take thermostat out, let it heat up to normal temps, let cool all the way down, repeat up to 10 times if it gets better each time. I had a equinox head gasket start to repair but ultimately didnt hold up because of type of gasket failure. That failure was allowing hot exhaust gases in the coolant. It was just too much pressure for it to handle. Had to just fix the right way. If you got a 4 banger or a inline 6 just read a manual and fix right! Their not near as hard to do as a v6 or v8 with two heads. Even if only one side blows, do both head gaskets. Always check heads if their warped. Get milled if they are. Some places will do for 50 a head, other places want around 100 a head but if you do this extra step it will help make a better seal! I do think if you have a nice car, you should just fix the right way! If your in a beater trying to get every last mile out of it before junkyard , i say go for it!

[@yonicsanchez226]

It works just have to follow directions and depends how bad your gasket is damage if you can’t idle your car at least 50 minutes then it’s not for you. I ran my car for about 3,000 miles no issues so far

I used Bar's Leak Head Gasket Sealer with Graphite in my '88 Chevy work van in 2011 after I found bubbles in the radiator coolant and steam coming out of the exhaust. Had four spark plugs that were covered with combustion deposits steam cleaned from their combustion chambers. Installed 4 new plugs set inside nonfoul adaptors before using the product. It's added to the coolant so left it in for 6 years. Changed the coolant to end up giving the engine a second Bar's Leak treatment. The first treatment held up for 15,000 miles. The second treatment lasted 20,000 miles. Drained that out in 2022 then barely drove the van for the next two years. Took it out on the interstate for an Italian tune-up which created another head gasket leak a few days later. Fixed some other issues that arose from the high speed run before adding the product by pouring the contents inside the upper radiator hose. The engine problems returned after pouring that in so the product is stuck inside the radiator. I poured some out into a container to ensure none would spill out of the radiator hose when set back in place. Emptied the container into the radiator after siphoning out some coolant so check out the dried residue. It was a white film that crumbled up easily and dissolved when mixed with water. It should mix in well once I get this engine running again. This is stuff works and is much cheaper plus easier than tearing the engine apart to replace the head gaskets

[@les536]

This stuff works I put this in a Cadillac and it fixed it if you follow the directions it will work

[@gunguy8348]

In 50 minutes I could have the valve and block off to remove and replace the head gasket and 30 minutes to put back together on a 4 cylinder car. A head gasket and new valv cover gasket maybe $50 total. If it over heated and cracked or warped you need a machine shop to Magna flux any way

Oh the engine is leaking fluids?.....some fluid should fix that.

Honda has over 200,000 miles. Runs good, except consumes coolant. Made little sense to change the head gasket without installing a new or rebuilt head and timing belt. Too much time and money if there was another way. I used Blue Devil. At first, I thought it didn't work. Coolant level was still going down. But then (wasn't keeping track of the mileage) one morning, the level hadn't changed. Then a few mornings later (I check every morning) the coolant level was touching the cap. Right where it should be. Will it last? Dunno. But for now, feeling pretty good about Blue Devil.

If you got a blown head gasket I guess try anything that might help. But I can’t see myself adding anything to the engine besides oil but that’s jus me. I worked for a company that had 5 foremen with 5.7 Hemi trucks that they let idle with the AC on for 8 plus hours everyday btw and not one ever blow a head gasket doing it. But do what you gotta do lol. But I’d recommend for the 5.7 or bigger don’t let it get to this point. Do little things to keep your engine cool if you got a heavy foot like me if I drive more then a hour in summer when I get home I always open the hood let the heat out let the vehicle sit in park for 1-3 mins before you turn the engine off and the last thing I do is turn the key to on and turn the heat up on the floor. Engine still off and let the heat blow out the floor vents for couple mins. Trust me it helps the plan is to prevent blown head gaskets is why I do what I do

I would wait about 2 weeks. If the vehicle doesn't overheat, or the check engine light doesn't come on for a misfire, I would do a compression check. If all of the cylinders have great compression in all 4, 6, or 8 cylinders.

Might not sound like much but as a 20 year old college student who paid $700 and $1400 for the cars respectively, I say it was definitely a big Win for me as I was able to take some of my savings and sell of both cars for a 2004 Mustang Mach 1 ($12,500 66k miles, got a good deal on it)

Beware this can ruin your water pump. I believe you should take out the thermostat. Used last night. Customer brought to me. I poured it in very slowly. Same as you. Idle for 50 minutes. Started to leak at water pump and started to over heat. Why would it make a leak? If it is to stop leaks. Smh I believe it fixed the head gasket. But it made another problem. Now the waterpump is leaking. Vehicle has no heat. Car had no coolant leaks. Just oil getting into the coolant. Did it exactly as you described. I did notice it hardens up like a rock. I believe it got caught in the water pump. Brand new water pump also. I dont see oil getting into coolant. So it took 1200 job turned it into a 350 job. I hope its not temporary.

[@robertryan4485]

Believe it or not that stuff works on a small Gap in your head out of blown head gasket a leaking head gasket but it does run around your radiator forever too but it worked on a little Chevy pickup truck and S10 85

[@63jeepj20]

If it will seal a head gasket it will seal small passages. It doesnt magically know to only seal the head gasket.

Just stumbled across your short. Mechanic in a can. An interesting experiment would be to buy a vehicle with a known blown head gasket. Use the product, prove the gasket isn't leaking, take the engine apart to see what failed and what the product did to stop the failure. You got a new sub.

[@PhillipsVision]

This video was shot using this on a car of mine with a blown head gasket. It’s been in the car for about 8 years...no issues, runs great. I will be replacing the head gasket just as a “How To” on my channel, and will examine it then.

​@@PhillipsVisionwas coolant getting into the oil? Ive been hearing mixed things about using this stuff after that point.

[@athensboy123]

This is what I'm doing right now to my truck Ford F-150 with 302 it's slowed the leak down within five or six minutes and it's completely stopped after 15 minutes no more coolant leak.. my only big question about this is what happens when you get done with the last step do you have to let the engine cool or can you just straight up start driving it after that?

[@PhillipsVision]

Once you add the coolant back you can start driving. I’ve had it in one of my cars for almost 8 years and still running fine.

[@hyperuben]

​​@@PhillipsVision Can I do the treatment using only water after having done a full system flush . That way I can flush it again after having done treatment and refill with coolant to prevent potential problems lots of guys here have mentioned. Thanks

It has to get up to temp to allow the blue devil to clog up the leak u know so the thermostat can open and everything flows

Ive tried this many times for cars that are not worth putting money into. And if you double it and leave it in it works years

That's temporary and for small leaks. Won't work if you already overheated and the head is warped.

Pour slowly and destroy your heater core and engine at same time But make sure you pour slow that’s the key

Do you drain everything out first

[@Petra123-]

I had a gasket underneath the pan that was leaking and this stopped it with half quart 10 years ago. But when I went for an oil change, they took a screwdriver and started scraping the gasket and made it start leaking again. I made a big stupid mistake and put another half a quart in there which I should’ve known better,. and I destroyed the motor I had to pay $8000 rebuilt motor😮 to be safe I wouldn’t use this product if it’s a pan leak just go get a new gasket for your pan

[@greeneyez92483]

Can this be done with out the car being turned on ?? Someone said it could but the directions say otherwise.

[@PhillipsVision]

I don’t see how it could, since it needs to circulate through the system.

[@BNforever2009]

I rather be real about it. Take it to the shop and get the heads taken off, get it hot tanked, buy new Manley valves, check valve seats, get a three angle valve job, get the heads ported, polished, port matched then , look at the block, make sure the pistons are good, piston rings are good and make sure the surface of the block is not warped and check the edges. New Fel Pro gaskets and thats it. Your choice to keep the stock exhaust manifolds or buy headers but i rather save the trouble and keep stock exhaust manifolds especially if its a regular daily driver.
