Re: product question

Re: product question

Nice buzzword for something which circulates in your coolant system and (hopefully) glues your engine back together. BandAid.

Don't get to comfortable. It's temporary.

Re: product question

Probably not. Except that when you do have to repair it the proper way, all that crap will still be in the system, (radiator and heater core being the biggest concern).

I know it's a band aid, but if I get another 10,000 out of this band aid I will be happy then I'll get rid of it because a 94 is not worth much

Re: product question

I would guess that another 10K is wishful thinking, but I do wish you luck. Let us know how long it lasts. Inquiring minds want to know.
