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.


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.

How much bars leak head gasket and cooling sealant should you pour in a 1992 Lexus es300?

NONE!! These type products are emergency repairs and will not permanently fix a blown head gasket or cooling system leak. In fact they can cause problems later on. Do not use these type products at all. Have the problem repaired correctly with a permanent fix.

How do you replace the head gasket on a 1997 ford Taurus?

The cheapest way is to do the job yourself. These cars were known to have gasket failures. A lot of times the gasket would allow coolant to leak into the oil. If your dipstick looks like a milkshake, chances are you have done some damage to bearings in the engine. You might not hear anything until a few months later.As far as stopleak or dropping an egg into rad, I cant see any cheap way to do this job. The problem is you are trying to seal combustion chamber pressures from the cooling system, and visa versa. ........I had good results from 2 small containers of alumaseal from discount auto supply.I had this problem. I tried bars leak 3 times, didn't work. Did the head job, and then the oil pump died. We were told the bars leak probably did it. Also Bars leak killed the thermostat, had to replace it (but since the headgasket blew, change it anyway). It can also damage the heater coil.No cheap way. The head set gasket set is 55 out the door, and the Haynes repair manual is 15. If you want JUST the head gasket (not a good idea) they're 17.00.The one other thing is the bolts are Torque to Yield, you need to spend the 30 bucks extra for new head bolts. Also, you need RTV gasket maker too.Replacing the head gasket on any vehicle is a long and complicated process, however if you wish to see basic step-by-step instructions go to the related question on the right side of the page "How do you replace a head gasket?"
