Default Alumaseal

How many of you have used this stuff?



I think the headgasket is going on my cousins 93 Civic DX, and I'm gonna pour some in to hopefully make it through the week.

I'm currently using it in my wifes 94 civic and it's sealing a hairline crack in the plastic part of the radiator.

I know it's a cheap ghetto fix but when $ is tight you gotta do what you gotta do.

It only works good to clog up the heater core.

Pep Boys didn't have bar's leak. I was looking for it when I got this. I used Bars Leak on a 1982 Datsun Pick Up I got for 300 bucks w/ blown head gasket. Drove it for 2 months like that until I sold it.
