Shamed to say we did it on a rover px'd to a dealer... nope not the head gasket mate its fine..... get new car... leg it.

The stuff will work if you catch it early, but it will fail soon enough and not do your water pump any good either.

hi just to add to what has been said on here it wont work , had a customer try it done as said on bottle and thought was fine drove it to see family about 20 miles and by time they had got to vist they had done in engine and ended up scrapping a very nice but old car

moral of story if its gone repair it properly and you know it will last !

waste of £45 plus that could be put to repair costs

plus it has a habbit of settling in the heater matrix (lowest part of system) and blocking it
so when you need it in winter it hardly puts any warm air out
so you flush the system out and re-antifreeze and head goes again

Hi Everyone, regarding the wonder cure for blown head gaskets and heads<<<::
Do NOT even go down that road, I Did, it doesn`t work, it`s expensive, it`s a load of RUBBISH:
and like someone on the previous thread has said, it will probably block the Matrix and every thing else that has small waterways.. We would all like a quick fix, there is no such animal, and certainly not at their prices.
FORGET IT...
