Where is your leak? Any solution you add to your coolant that is supposedly going to cure your car's cancer is just a band-aid. Fix it right the first time, additives usually cause people more problems that what they started with.

Uh, take it to Midas or anywhere really, and for $20 they will do a cooling system pressure test. They pressurize the cooling system so that if its going to leak, it will leak, and you can find the leak, and fix it. They love selling additives for your oil trans and cooling system or your gas, but they dont do ****. Fix it the right way....

OMG, no. Some radiator 'stop leak' stuff won't fix a leaking head gasket.

Change your head gasket.
