engine seal

does it really work? the stuff that you put in your radiator after you flush it, to seal head gaskets, i used one bottle, and the smoke stopped a little bit, should i add another bottle?

Band-aid.

If there is a problem its been my experience that there is not a liquid in the world that will fix it.

What are the symptoms that led you to use this in the first place?
