I'm not a mechanic, but in my experience I'd say stay far away from those - stop leak, no leak, whatever brand it is. They might "fix" your leak, but they do so by swelling seals, and it will more than likely cause you problems down the line, turning the seals to gooey gunk junk. I view it as snake oil.
I'd recommend taking it to an automotive mechanic you trust and maybe getting a quote for how much it would cost to properly fix the leak if you actually want to fix it right. Stop Leak or whatever is like snorting cocaine to fix your sleepiness problem |
It's most likely a head gasket. No. Don't do that. lol If it's a beater, then that'd be a quick short term fix and everything SGR said^ but if you plan on keeping it for a while then get it fixed properly. A good garage mech could do it cheap if you know someone.

I had an oil leak and had it fixed by a trusted mechanic for less than $200. It probably is the way to go.

Head gaskets are fairly straight forward and a cheap part, but it does depend on the make and model. Sometimes it's just a matter of getting to it that can be a bitch. Engineers are like **** it, not my problem. lol

It not quite a beater but it is Frank’s “spare” car lol. It’s already paid off and not really worth putting money into I don’t think, but I always wondered about that. Thanks Dads.

Just be mindful of where you park it. I hate oil stains.
Call your mother. She worries you know. |
Thankfully it doesn’t leave a slick behind, it’s just enough of a leak to notice.
I have a standing lunch date with my mom every Saturday and she only lives like 2.5 miles away from me lol. I love my mama. |
Ride a bike.

Charles don’t act like you don’t leak grease pedaling down those hills
