Fast Fix Water Leak

Fast fix

 

my car was the same a few weeks aggo but not having the time i did my all time top water leek trick

 

2 eggs in the header tank ...

 

Sounds daft but it works short term anyway 3 weeks up to now in my cabby

 

what happens is the egg will travel round the engine water ways and when it meets air it solidifies

 

it only works on small leaks and will not damage the engine at all

 

its what people used before rad weld

used rad wield in the past, wasn't impressed, but found k-seal very good and used by the aa.

But rather fix the thing properly

Havent used the egg but fixed loads which have put rad weld and k seal in it . fixed the leak and found heater's still to be cold and found rad weld or k seal has sealed the heater matrix up and other bits ... not many have done this just dont leave it in there for to long
