Where is the top hose on a 1997 Oldsmobile Achieva SC located so you can insert Bars Leak?
Please, if you can possibly help it, don't use that crap in your engine-sooner or later the leak is going to get worse anyway so why not get to the problem now. That stuff will clog up your radiator, heater core, and any small water passages in your engine-trust me on this!
Can a hole in a radiator be patched?
Modern radiators are not made to be repaired. Depending on where your leak is, you may be able to patch it. Radiator Stop Leak additives usually clog up the entire cooling system and cause more repair costs than they claim to avoid.The best solution is to buy and install a new radiator.

Where do you add radiator Stop Leak to a 1996 Oldsmobile Achieva?
I have used radiator stop leak before in my 1996 Olds Achieva SC with the V6. I put it directly into the coolant resovor. It went in fine for me. This did not give me much help though. I would not recommend using stop leak. It will clog your heater core and then you will have more than the radiator as your problem. Fine a new radiator and replace it that is the best advidce i can give you.
Can you use stop leak on the radiator of your 1994 jaguar xj6?
Yes. Suggest using "Bars Leak" Anything else may plug up your radiator. Yes, but recognize that stop-leak in any form will only stop the problem temporarily. As the radiator heats and cools it also expands and contracts. Sooner or later, the stop-leak will fail. And it will probably be sooner than later.
Has anyone heard of putting an eggwithout its shell in a radiator to stop a leak?
Yes, that is a very old temporary fix for a radiator with a slight leak. Although it has been shown to actually work, I would not recommend it. If you have a leak, have it repaired and do not use any type stop leak. They are for emergency use only! * The egg has the potential to clog parts of the radiator, reducing it's effectiveness. As said above, the egg is for EMERGENCY and SHORT TERM use only.
Can you use Bars leak in 92 Saturn sl through reservoir coolant since it's the only way to radiator?

Will bars leak seal an intake?
NO it will not, It will cause other problems like stoping up the heater core and radiator. You MUST replace the intake gaskets.
How do you Put stop leak in the radiator?
Depends, do you have a radiator cap on the radiator or is your cooling system ran from the overflow tank? if you have a cap on the radiator then the answer is pretty obvious, open the cap and pour it in. if you don't have a cap on the radiator, then you will have to remove the upper radiator hose to pour the stop leak directly in the radiator. i wouldn't try putting the stop leak in the overflow because it may not all get into the radiator thus making it less effective and could possibly even clog the lines. i had this same question and i finally found the answer so i thought i'd come back and share with you. i have a 1996 3.1 corsica and the radiator has no cap. i was thinking you could pour it in from one of the hose outlets but wasn't sure.
