Ave Maria in a bottle

Let's face it, when you think about it you're looking for Hail Mary in a bottle and this product provides just that. I put it on a 2000 Subaru Forester 2.5L. This engine has over 230,000 miles on the clock and is suffering from a cracked head or block due to overheating due to a head gasket failure. This was the third set of gaskets on this particular engine and if you are familiar with Scoobys this mileage should not surprise you. Unfortunately this time it was not possible to catch the seals before the engine was damaged. The engine showed several error codes including the 4th cylinder stopped working. Because it's so much cheaper than a short block I thought "What the heck?" Pour it exactly in the following directions and voila closed the crack. I replaced the #4 spark plug (the electrode was gone) and now the engine purrs. I'm honestly amazed and couldn't be happier. I've driven about 100 km so far, no oil, no antifreeze, no overpressure in the cooling system. Just breathtaking! Will be updated after further kilometers.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • The list will be long.
