I do not recommend this product. Some of the $50-100 product seem to have good reviews and a better chance of fixing a head gasket issue. This product worked for 15 minutes on a head gasket leak on my Pontiac then caused serious engine damage, oil mixed wit water, water mixed with oil, 100x times worse then the original problem.

I can find no reason that K-Seal can added to your radiator. My only suggestion would be to make sure your coolant/anti-freeze is new and clean.(K-Seal is for Head Gasket, Block/Head and Radiator Seal) I used this product on a GM NorthStar Engine 4.6 Aluminum Block and Heads!Regards

Yes it wont harm anything and will help prevent gasket problems. Thats my experience.

I wouldn't use it as a preventative since it might put particulates in the coolant I would personally use it only if there is a leak in the system

Yes, it is a great preventative maintenance, or keep for emergency use, especially for older cars and trucks. Best not to overuse though, and follow manufacturer's instruction regarding use. I have found this to be an excellent item to keep in glove box for emergency use, in all vehicles. Hope this helps.

No, it should not leak. Please align and distribute the gasket equally around periphery before locking and operation.

Yes you can. See this video from Youtube. This is how I fixed my leak successfully. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRpkklLqoKI

Yes it would work. I've used it to seal a part on a radiator with no problems. I also think the package says its good for up to 500 degrees.

Good morning. It's impossible to answer that question directly... there are just too many variables.... Exactly where is it leaking? how bad is it leaking? and so forth..... That being said, this product solves a lot of problems for a lot of people... It's always worth a try before going to the expense of breaking down the engine for repair. Eric

Probably not. It is really not at all what it is advertised to be. It may work as a "very" temporary fix for a couple of weeks. It is not good for that kind of a leak.

I had a small leak on the head gasket it sealed it fine I believe it would seal a larger leak, be sure to take your thermostat out and flush the cooling system at least four times follow the directions on the bottle.

No. This product is nothing more than a heat shield to lower under hood temperatures. It will not seal a leak.

There can be certain factors that can cause overheating.However, you need to be certain that the cooling system is leaking out the coolant. If not sure check if the coolant level in the radiator falls and you need to top it up again and again. if that is the case, then you might try the K-Seal. Remember that what the K-Seal does is just to stop the leak and not the overheating. I will suggest that you take your car to a good mechanic and let them find out why the car is overheating. You may not need the K-Seal if the coolant is not leaking out.

Maybe but if you can it would be better to take it to a radiator shop to have the leak fixed. Next best thing I would try is stop leak. Auto parts stores sell it especially for radiator leaks.JB water weld worked on my hot water tank for about 2 years until the hole rusted out more.

My last two cars had over 150K on each of them with not even a drop or weep of leakage. My current cars have 50K each and don't leak. I think you'd be safe. Besides, it kind of defeats the purpose if you have to use tools to change your oil after you install one of these.

I don't see any reason it couldn't be. But I will tell you, this product did not work for me. Just like the Wetter Water, & other Cool products, their all based on the same sound principal. But I've tried them All, & not one, has made any difference, in the temperature of my radiator. They All were a waste of my money! I do not recommend any cooling additives! Rodney

I don't see why not. Basically, what it does is make the water "wetter" to increase thermal transfer efficiency - but it would be a good idea to call your dealer and/or search the internet to find if there is information out there that would indicate you shouldn't use it. I'm 95% sure it would be OK - but it's always good to check around ;)

If the leak is due to a bad gasket, this should work if carefully applied. I have used it on plastic and rubber with no problems. If the leak is due to a crack in the manifold, I can't be sure. But it's worth a shot since a tube of this stuff is cheaper and easier than buying and installing a new manifold.

The radiator is not exactly removable. While you may detach it from the reservoir and the pump I don't know with any certainty if you can replace the fittings and re-use the pump and reservoir. If that is your intention you're better off just buying a combination pump/reservoir from any of the big names like EK, XSPC, Alphacool etc. Their pumps will also be stronger than the unit in this system.

No. If you have already used another stop leak product, you'll want to fully drain your radiator and put in clean antifreeze first before using Bar's. Good luck. Bar's did nothing to stop the leak in my Subaru.

I doubt that there is a radiator that this kit doesn't fit. There is a money-back guarantee, duh.
