If any of these block other parts of the system then it was partially blocked already, independant testing have shown that K seal will not block anything bigger than 0.8mm which is far smaller than any waterway in any vehicle, if you had issues it's nothing to do with the product but the incompetence of the person doing it...

I don't waste money though, they state it is a permanent fix, Rolls Royce supply every new car with a leak additive in the cooling system in case a small leak develops and creates a breakdown. If it's good enough for them........ I don't consider it a bodge if it cures the problem, you wouldn't replace the whole engine for a bent valve, why change and entire gasket for what will be a very small leak, if you can repair then why replace....

I'm sorry but you can't quote that thread as evidence that K seal will block an engine, that was an old blocked rad anyway that had a leak and a previous owner put "something" in it to flog the car. It certainly doesn't look like K seal or any other sealer I have ever seen. If your antifreeze is the correct colour and clear with no milkyness or rust evidence then the cooling system will take K seal, if it works, great, you've had a result, if it doesn't, replace the gasket, how can it be a bodge if it fixes the problem...???

Never used it, sorry, K seal doesn't use copper... read their website, and steel seal and make your own mind up.......

Rawhide pete I'm a gas registered fitter and if a tenant or customer has put a leak seal in an boiler 99% of times it doesn't fix the problem 2 it invalidateds the warrenty if the system has had it in and would you buy a car if you knew it had k seal init ?? I doubt very much I'm sorry but your advise stink FIX THE PROBLEM SORTED |

And I thought the site was a grown up place, not a 'playground name-calling' one.
