Snake oil - if you have a leak it should be corrected properly.

If you use something like stop leak (stop leak = stop flow), how can you be sure it doesn't block flow to areas that should have flow? No different that using stop leak in your radiator - gums everything up and then you have an even bigger job to face when you do decide to fix the problem correctly.

If you do decide to go this route, please post back and let everyone know what your results were, I am sure I am not the only one who would like to know the results - rarely do I believe the claims of "As seen on TV" advertisements.
