A product called Blue Devil is much better in my opinion.

yea but the blue devil is about 70.00 compared to about 15.00 for the gm pellets.
the pellets only stop small leaks but the other stuff seals cracks. when i worked for gm they put the pellets in anything still under warranty as "maintenance".
I used the blue devil on a cracked 3.8 ford head without the thermostat and it worked for 6-7 months but when I put the stat back in it started pumping water and white smoke out the exhaust.

I am ashamed to say I have used blue devil several times and it fixed it for well over a year and still going on two vehicles... This isnt pellets, the pellets dont work on major stuff.

I got ten bux says no one in here knows this trick.... Take an egg and throw it in..as it hardens it will seal the leak..but unfortunately it doesn't last for a long period of time...good in an emergency situation if ur in the middle of nowhere... So who is bringing eggs to the power tour?
