you have to follow specific instructions, do a search to find the procedure. if you don't you may wind up with blocked coolant passages.

I caught a coolant seal leak early on my prevoius NA.
I used the brown powder Barrs Leak stuff since I already had some.
It held for almost a year.
When I sold the car, it was still running great.

--F that block weld ****
Here is what you need but its 75 dollars a pop
it called Blue devil---do what it says,and it works great,I had blown coolant seals,
and the guys at eld performance told me about it--they used it for blown head gaskets.I used it and have had no problems .I put it in ,in june--I run 50/50 and have had no problems.--like i said though its not cheap ,but its alot cheaper than a rebuild
