Bar's Leaks HG-1 HEAD SEAL Blown Head Gasket Repair

Listen up everyone! Stop scrolling and read this!!! My trailblazer was acting like I had a blown head gasket or cracked head! Its a 2003 with well over 260k miles on her! Other than this shes done me so well. One morning I was on my way to the doctor's. I looked down at my gauges and my oil bottomed out the pressure in it. I was blowing white smoke out the back and then it stalled so I pulled over sat there a minute restarted it and the oil gauge went up so I got to the nearest store checked my oil my oil was low so I put oil in it It was fine for a little bit then it kept doing the same thing. So I went and got an opinion on what could be wrong and they had told me cracked head or head gaskets. I don't have $7,000 to pay to get it fixed when my truck is worth at top end $3,000. So I decided to do research and I came across this b a r s all the reviews I read we're good sorry I figured out I'll buy it give it a try. I got this in the mail read the directions did it to a t It took about three running cycles and my oil's been keeping pressure I haven't had any white smoke blowing out the back. This is the best stuff I have ever purchased for in my truck that actually worked Do not hesitate to buy this trust me it'll save you thousands of dollars whoever came up with this product I hope they're making bank because they're saving me bank.

If you do some research and check out various automotive forums everyone almost unanimously despises these products treating them like snake oil. If you plan on replacing your head gasket then do not use a chemical sealer in the mean time. If, like me, you just want a little more time out of a dying beater then go for it.I have a 98 F250 (RWD) with a wimpy 4.6 Triton. It has ~246,000 miles on it. Paid $2,000 for it several years ago. Recently it started overheating and overflowing the coolant reservoir. There was no oil in the coolant or coolant in the oil. Ordered a $40 block tester off Amazon and the blue fluid turned yellow indicating a bad head gasket. I called a local mechanic and he said it would be $3,000 to fix it but he wouldn't touch it because of the overhead cams. He recommended Blue Devil. After some research I decided the procedure for Blue Devil was too bothersome as it required a coolant flush and being poured slowly into the radiator. The only easy way to add coolant to my truck is through the coolant reservoir.The instructions for this sealer are simple and easy to follow. I dumped a whole bottle in the coolant reservoir and thermal cycled the engine two or three times with the heater on blast before taking it for a drive. The temperature gauge stabilized about 1/3 of the way up from the cold indicator and stayed there. No more coolant overflow.I have no idea how long it'll last. I'll be thrilled if I can get another year or two out of it while saving for a replacement. If it starts overheating again I'll do my best to update this review.

Bar's HG-1 did the trick for me. Had droplets of coolant leaking into 3 of 4 cylinders overnight from the pressure in the system. It caused nearly impossible cold starts because of the accumulation of coolant. I didn't have the typical problems of white smoke, or overheating. In fact, my regular mechanic couldn't diagnose it, I had to take it to a specialist, they originally thought it was electrical. The specialist showed me video of the cylinder from the inside where you could see the slow drip.I took the initiative and researched Bar's, I even called the 800 # hotline and spoke to a very professional technician who took the time to understand my circumstances. He said I was a good candidate for the treatment. I carefully followed the directions and for the last two mornings it started right up, confirming the problem was solved.Considering I addressed the underlying issue (the water pump) which led to my gasket failure, the technician said I have every right to believe that this is basically a permanent fix. The carbon-fiber reinforced sodium silicate (liquid glass) provides a stronger repair than the actual gasket itself. The stuff is liquid magic in a bottle if you're a good candidate for this treatment.
