Cadillac Repair: 1997 Cadillac Deville leaking head gasket, head gasket, cadillac deville
QuestionI was told instead of taking the head and machining it and replacing the head gasket a stop leak process can be employed. But at a 50% success rate. What is your opinion? Do I have other options? The car runs perfectly, has zip and power and all that but leaks coolant.
I'll appreciate your comments.
AnswerI do NOT recommend this STOP LEAK product as it has a problem with plugging up the small tubes in your heater core which causes a problem of NO HEAT.
If you want to try something. Drain out all the anti-freeze from the cooling system and install new coolant and add the General Motors stop leak TABLETS or PELLETS to the cooling system.
This is the ONLY product I recommend using.
