Never use sealant for a head gasket! It is used as a quick fix for cracks in the gasket but will not last very long. Safer to get the job done correctly.
you should never use a sealant on a head gasket as that is only a temporary fix in an emergency situation. The only permanent fix is to replace the gasket.
There are several pour in sealant options that "Claim" to seal head gasket leaks. If they work at all and it is unlikely, it will be for a short period only.The only real repair for head gasket leaks is to change the head gasket making sure to check everything correctly allong the way!
In most cases a new gasket is required, but no sealant.
never
In your dreams bubela! Buy a new gasket.
none. if you use a gasket dont use sealant. Also never use sealant on a automatic trannsmission. It could damage the tranny and will not last.
NO! These type products are only an emergency repair. The only permanent repair is to remove and replace the blown gasket. Besides these type products can cause clogging of the cooling system. Do not use them.
Never use RTV on a head gasket. Use a spray type sealer.
Yes, it sure can.
Do not use sealant on the head gasket. I use permatex on the threads of the bolts that go into water jackets.
They don't work and are only an emergency repair. If you have a blown head gasket the only way to repair it is to replace it.
Some head gaskets come with a coat of "Copper coat" sealant already on it. You can use copper coat on a head gasket safely. I prefer "Indian Head Shellac" myself. Just be sure to completely clean the heads first, and apply the sealant liberally. If you use too much, you can damage your engine by the sealant leaking into the engine itself.
