I realize now that I could have mentioned that when I had weepy heads I put
in about a third of a tube of Aluma Seal and they stopped.  Long time later
they started again, put in another third.  Long time later, the third
third.  It was still holding up when I had the engine rebuilt with
something like 185k miles on it -- probably 50,000 with the stuff in the
system.  No radiator troubles so far, though as I said it doesn't get all
that hot in New England.
