totaly it puts and stuffs in places and is no good after
using once. I tried to get more miles out of my leaky heads
and this stuff got pushed from the front to the back of the
van. I would never use again!  the p.o used the wrong coolent at one point, plus the gaskets were a bit pushed
out on the bottom half. but i got alot of miles out of the
van before thinking a rebuild would be better after looking
at the corosion when the heads were removed. plus i was
going to use rebuilt heads instead of the AMC choice.

I went with AMC and well it to a second seal job, because
the first only lasted 8000 in miles before i got a hair line
crack and well it just played air games after that. I'm running good now.

btw you loose pressure in your radiator i think it clogs
the pores.

just my story :) hope it helps
