    Copper or Aluminum


    They have a plastic, and I dont recall the name. You warm up with a torch and push it in like solder, works well on aluminum. Lots of rad shop have it. Copper pinch it and solder it. Mind you this will get you buy. But it's no permanate fix.

    Black pepper will stop it in a copper rad. You add it till it stops. Flush out later and will not react with metals or gasket.

    But best to change it.

    Sheet you put store bought goo in it? Get a pair or plyers and pinch it shut. Maybe the goo will work then. It's only one core.

    But now plan on getting that goo out.

    Best I ever found. Follow the instructions and dont get it on paint or skin.

    Yeah itll get replaced. It's got more than one hole. The biggest one is the one that didnt seal.

    Would he still need to flush it if he changes it ? How bad would that stuff cling to the hoses, pump and Block ?
