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.
If there are no visible leaks....a blown head gasket.
Not likely.... I'd never use anything "temporary" on a head gasket.
replace head gasket
Any parts store can provide you with the correct gasket.
It is either an intake gasket, or head gasket most likely...bring it in to a mechanic.
$2200 is what I spent but it was head gasket and intake gaskets.
Blown head gasket, cracked head, or cracked block.
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.
IMO, this is only a temporary emergency fix. It will not permanently fix the problem. You will need a new head gasket.
It may work as an emergency temporary repair but the only permanent repair is to replace the head gasket.
No, that is, at best, a temporary fix. The only permanent repair is to replace the gasket.
The gasket is between the head and the intake.
