Bad idea …

Most of the time they will clog your heater core

get with the times

id call it an awesome leak since its 2008 and not 1992.

:frowning:

Damnit I was too late.

it does more harm then good.

if the leak is just a small crack or something try using jb weld. i used some on my grand prix 20,000 miles ago and its still holding strong.

i have a half size radiator id get rid of cheap.

It’s already been mentioned but definitly don’t use this stuff. It will clog your heater core.

If used as per directions, it works fine. You only need it to hold for a day or 2? If you are getting rid of it who cares about the heater core. If not, be sure to flush the system after repairing correctly. I’ve used it on several winter cars & it stopped leaks ranging from a bad radiator, water pump & a head gasket leak. Can it clog the heater core, sure, but chances are you’ll be fine if you follow directions and don’t go with the attitude that if 12 oz is good, 24 must be better.

not to self don’t buy used cars from BREETIME :smiley:
