has any one used STEEL SEAL for a blow en head gasket or crack head?

Answer 1

I have never used it, and probably never would unless someone could give me concrete evidence that this stuff works (which I doubt!) I think it's more of a "band-aid" than an actual repair. Plus, putting in a sealer like that could clog your heater core and/or radiator, then you've got more problems! Bottom line, I wouldn't use it in my car, or anyone Elses'.

Answer 2

have tried many "riggin" ways to fix a head gasket at the request of my poorer customers, none have worked to my satisfaction. If you are keeping the car, fix it right the first time...you will save so much time and money

Answer 3

i tried it on a piece of **** car i was going to junk any way, it worked but the head was cracked and went out again 6 months later. i also had a friend who used it (the one who told me about it) that used it on his 95 grand am and it still runs to the day

Answer 4

sealer is just to get you back home if your stranded.the best way is just tear it down and fix it right,cause if you dont you will be stranded again,ill guarentee it,so you dont have much choice but get out the wrenches and fix it right.

Answer 5

This stuff can be hit and miss....... I'd only use it in a car that you need to get a few more miles out of.... otherwise, have it done right!
