K&W block seal
Ill do a review of this can of sand....
patient is my beater Mazda. The guy cut the head too much and now Im still getting a few drips from the head gasket area. So, I got a week to kill and I never drive the thing so Im going to give this product the test.
First impression is the stuff settles in the can something fierce. Its like beach sand at the bottom of a bucket of seawater. The instructions say to shake it, but that aint gonna cut it. You have to get in there with a pushrod to break up the cement and make it pourable. Its still has clumps of stuff so I say use a mixer and beat it pretty good so you end up with the media totally dissolved in the liquid. It says to add it to 3 quarts of warm water and pour it into a drained system with the thermostat removed, then top with water. You must top off the system so it will leak and fill the faults. you them idle for 30 minutes and then let cool and drain. Let it set up for 24 hours, then re-stat, refill with coolant and cross your fingers. Ill be the first to admit this isnt a permanent fix, but I may just scrap this truck anyway so I thought Id give it a shot. I let the tags expire so Im on the hook for $100 registration fee penalty. • $100 CHP penalty. • 160% of the VLF due for that year or 160% of the weight fee due for that year, if any.
