It won't work. There is entirely too much pressure in the cylinders to seal up a head gasket... but many people have to try it themselves.

How do you temporary fix a head gasket on a 1989 Oldsmobile?
My personal opinion is that the wording "head gasket" sounds complicated. When you say "engine block seal" it will make a little more since as to what you are actually dealing with and is no different. To answer your question, YES there is a temporary fix for a blown head gasket and it cost anywhere from $10.00-$65.00. It is called BARS Seal, BARS leak, Bars stop leak, and there are some other brands, but BARS Seal has always worked for me. It is a thick liquid substance that you pour into your radiator and when you follow the directions exactly, it works on any brand or size engine with a blown head gasket. In most cases this is temporary even though it may say "permanent" don't get your hopes up. I do, currently, own a 1995 V6 Toyota 4runner 4x4 sr5 that blew it's head gasket, back in 2001, and runs like a top, today, after adding BARS Seal 1 time, 9.5 years ago.
Is there a quick fix for a blown head gasket?
NO!!! Well.... maybe, but it's a gamble in the eyes of most! A lot of people are against it, but actually, there is a great quick fix for a blown head gasket. It's called BARS Seal/leak. There is a few different brands besides BARS, but when the directions are followed exactly, I have fixed many cars, trucks, and SUV's with BARS. It is a thick liquid substance, that can be purchased at most auto stores, that is poured into the radiator. I am currently driving a 1995 4runner that blew a head gasket back in 2001. After just 1 $10.00 bottle of BARS, it's still running like a top.

Definately use a new head gasket no question about it.. The only reuseable head gaskets are from full out race engines. Usually customed milled from a sheet of copper and most of the time reuseable for a set number of uses...
