Just thought i would post this in case anyone was have a head or head gasket issue.

Try Bars Leaks Head Gasket repair, it takes time it took me about 4 1/2 hrs AFTER i got it all flushed out good and cleaned. then let it sit for 15hrs and then flushed out good several times and filled and NO MORE LEAK!

It was fully worth the 10 bucks. SO far.

Mine kinda varied sometimes it would go from MAX line to Below MIN in 2 hrs and sometimes it would only go just above MIN or RARELY it would stay just below MAX.

It would bubble in the tank all the time (and if a/c was off you could hear it from inside car.

Now No more bubbles no more smell no more white smoke out tail pipe. No nothing.

Would recommend trying before you lay out money on a head or gasket.

I haven't taken it for a long trip yet to see if it leaks but i am pretty sure it wont, Because there is no smoke,smell or bubbling.

I just followed instructions, I did drive it around for a hour at 35-40 mph and got some doughnuts. instead of running at 1500RPMs since i dont have a tachometer.

edit,

Also it appears to run ALLOT cooler. I used Napa's Radiator Flush Additive to clean it before i put in BARS leaks stuff

before sitting there in idle it would go up to M/A O With fan now she sits right on O WITHOUT Fan dont know about driving or sitting in drive-thru's or anything yet, but ill find out soon and let yall know.

From what I hear, those stop leak stuff clog radiators and small passageways... which reduce flow in turn (might be why your temp guage shows "cooler").
