K-Seal, or any so-called sealer is temporary at best, if it works at all. It usually stops up the cooling system causing more damage. You will eventually have to repair the head gasket, but after using the sealer, you will also, at the very least, have to replace the radiator and heater core.

It will be cheaper in the long run to just fix the problem right.

Look,I'm a mechanic,it's what I do for money that I need for food,like you,clothes,like you,everything,like you.
So the h/gaskets gone and you come see me,now,just numbers,500 job of which 250 is for parts 50 for materials and sundries and that leaves me 200 for say 5 hours of work,take off my overheads and I get say 120 ,ok.Or if that crap worked I could say I've done as before and when you come back and pay me and I've made 500 less the cost of a bottle of crap for five mins of work,I mean,how would you know the difference?So if that stuff worked at all and I was less honest,and come on you all believe mechanics are robbing bastards anyway,aren't they?how could you tell?
I'm a mechanic,its how I make my money,the people who make that stuff are not mechanics,they make their money in a different way.
