It's fantastic! I've always been very sceptical on quick fix products like this but one small bottle of this seen me through a 500+ mile round trip to Reading last weekend AND sitting in traffic on the M5 for hours on end last Friday! I thought my trip was scuppered the morning I set off but all was saved... although I missed the festival on Friday due to being gridlocked... :sad:

Or what a previous owner did on my brothers car, shove so much rad weld into the system it blocked the head gasket fault enough to sell the car on :mad:

Jeepers! Didn't know it caused problems like that! Luckily the car I used was my old man's Mazda 626 so no turbo to worry about. I only put in a small bottle and monitored the temperature gauge etc... to see if it was working, but everything seemed ok going to and from Reading... Need a new radiator anyway but as a temporary fix it seemed to do the job.

Its supposed to be just the egg white but definately not a good solution :laugh: try cleaning it up and flushing the system out afterwards. Boiled egg anyone :D
