Hey guys, my car has been losing coolant steadily for a few weeks now. There are no visible leaks, so it seems that I have a leaky head gasket. What do you guys think? can you recommend any of those radiator and block leak stop remedies from the auto parts store? I'd like to know what I should do about this, apart from telling people I have a "custom water injection".

Don't assume it's a HG and act accordingly.
Verify and THEN act..... Don't use any of the stopleak stuff unless it's a temp fix. And once you fix, get a GOOD [not Prestone from Walmart] coolant flush to get all the crap out. Hit up autocrap and see if they have coolant pressure testers to rent for free. If so, rent one and use it. --------------------  |
