trying to find the infamous radiator stop leak picture

I'm pretty sure i saw it in somebody's build thread. it is a tube that is sliced open and is filled solid with radiator stop leak. Thanks

WOW, NO KIDDIN!!! I'd like to see that myself... a dude at work was asking me about radiator stop leak. I knew enough to tell him don't do it, sure would like to show him why...

people are stupid for using that crap. Just like my brothers car. It had multiple leaks from busted hoses, you think 5 treatments would have stopped the leak...but no, it clogged everything!

This is why stop leak sucks. I dont use the stuff, but the PO did. If a customer comes in the store, i try and talk them away from the stopleak crud.
