Update: Blown Head Gasket Snake Oil - 8 months later
Well, it's Dec. 5, 2008 and I wanted to give you on update as I promised. I initially used the the Thermagasket product on April 1, 2008. It is now Eight Months later and everything is still holding and I haven't had any problems since. No blockage. No overheating. No regrets. Temperatures are operating and holding normally as if there was never a problem.
(I recently discovered that the previous owner removed the console light behind the radiator warning light. I suppose he had overheating problems, couldn't or didn't want to fix it, so he simply disconnected the warning light to deceive the next buyer. .... sneaky dishonest previous owner).
.... but it's fixed and working now. I even replaced the bulb and socket in the dash console so I can see if my overflow reservoir level is being maintained.)
I read other replies to my original post where different manufacturer's products were used and didn't work. I'm amazed that there are two pages of posts and replies after my first posting. This must be a serious concern of Supra owners.
I'm just posting my results to relay my experience, but it's unbelievable how many people want to "kill the messenger" or accuse me of ulterior motives.
Hey, the product worked for me and I'll continue to post the status just to give my experience with this specific product. Can't wait to post after next summer when it really gets hot in Houston. By then, I would have at least 12 months of using the product.
Until then or until if fails...
