permanent Head gasket sealent

[DearDoger]

So i think my head gasket may be on its way out i have very little money and need this car to get to work. I went to shucks and got this stuff that says it permanently repairs head gaskets, cracked engine blocks, intake gaskets, cylinder heads, and heater cores. Has anyone ever had experiance with these type of products and do you think it will hold up on a turbo engine.

Also the first 3 steps of the product are 1. remove thermostat. 2. start and idle engine until warm. 3.drain radiator. Do these instructions make sense to anyone isnt it a bad idea to remove thermostat then start the car? Thanks for the help

I dont believe I would do it If your pouring that into the car it would have to run threw the turbo and IDK what kind of mess that would make. If you are good with tools and have a head gasket you can do it in a day no problem.

Should do a fine job of sealing your turbo spool and drain, too.

No. Don't try to half-ass it. It won't pay off.
