  • no thats what happens when you dont follow directions.

  • RobWIII your an idiot, I have used bar stops for years, never had any troubles and it works, I have been a professional mechanic for 30+ years so I figure I'm qualified to comment, which in your case you are not, follow the directions, don't double dose, if it don't work, pull out the wallet, don't keep adding the stuff, that is what gets people into trouble, if one dose is good two must be better, that is the problem not the sealer.

  • What brand?

  • There are many kinds of auto sealants for cooling systems, brakes, AC, oil, and power steering. I am trying to figure out which is better for the cooling system... liquid gel sealants or the powder type. I have tried both, but probably should not have mixed sealants with another type. Also someone recommended that the radiator cooling system be flushed after a leak has been sealed. This is probably to flush out any unnecessary leftover sealants. Any suggestions from anyone is welcomed.

  • exactly

  • Amen!

  • Nice, but I use radiator sealer all the time, it depends upon how much you use, most people who use it don't follow the rules, they think more is better so they keep adding and adding it in the hopes that the leaks stops, that is where the trouble starts, only use what they say, if it don't work, time to pull out the wallet and look for the bad part. I never had any troubles with it and it does work most of the time.

  • So the only solution is to replace the whole radiator? I'm pretty sure I have a lead in the radiator or the overflow tank. Theres nothing i can use to see if that temporarily fixes the problem till I can afford to replace the radiator?

  • I used that Bars leak back in 2000 when our motorhome developed a huge leak in the high desert of Oregon. I added two bottles against my better judgement to try and get through the trip. Its still in there, 20,000 miles later. After that I added it to my Nissan Pickup around 2004. 60,000 miles later It's still going. No problems yet.

  • You dont have to be rocket scientist to know how to mix bars leak with radiator fluid.

  • that stuff should not even be sold. it's a nightmare.
