    why does the 16 oz bottle not say” to remove thermastate” , and the 32 oz bottle does? doesent make since to me. product works great! must say the money back guarentee made the differance to try it. cant waste money on a fixed income. also it means you stand buy your product. hard to find real quality anything these days.I will always recomend this product.this is my first time to comment on any product.its that good.im sure your products will go far.

    • BlueDevil Pro on April 29, 2013 at 12:31 pm

      Thank you so much for your comments!

      In regards to the Head Gasket Sealer, you may use either product. The “Pour N Go” (16 oz./white label) is a less concentrated formula that does not require the removal of the thermostat or a flush of the cooling system prior to use. The “Pour N Go” was specifically formulated so that it was an “easy to use” product and through testing we were able to develop a formula that didn’t require the removal of the thermostat but still carries a high success rate. Whereas the “Mechanic Approved” (32 oz./yellow label) requires both the removal of thermostat and a flush before applying the product; the 32 ounce is the more concentrated formula.

      The product with the yellow label (32 ounce) will give you best overall results as long as you can remove the thermostat and flush the system prior to use.

      Feel free to contact us with any questions.

        I have a 2005 Toyota 4Runner V6 and the thermostat is built into the housing and the hose connection, the thermostat cannot be removed. Can I still use the yellow label product? I have already purchased it. Thanks

        • BlueDevil Pro on January 13, 2014 at 3:07 pm

          The way you can get around the housing is by taking a old thermostat and modifying it so that the middle piece does not close; you may remove, or gut, the middle of the thermostat. By doing so you will create a free flow and still be able to have the full housing installed.

          Once the process is complete you will need to replace the thermostat.

          Feel free to contact us with any further questions.

            Hi I have a 2010 Audi A4 Quattro. I have a oil leak ,a head gasket leak , and have oil in spark plug cylinder 3. I don’t know which of the blue devils to get honestly. Can I use more then one? I was going to use the oil leak, and the head gasket leak sealer pour And go one together . But I don’t know if thats a good idea. And is this product good for luxury cars?.



          • BlueDevil Pro on February 19, 2021 at 3:18 pm

            Wyan-

            Thank you for asking about your Audi A4. Unfortunately, we don’t manufacture a product intended to seal a head gasket that is leaking oil. BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer is only intended for water/coolant leaks. A hard part repair/engine replacement may be your best option.

            Thank you!

          • Wes Neal on January 2, 2023 at 4:11 pm

            Can I use your Head gasket sealer after using Barr’s Head gasket sealer with fiber a mouth ago, that stopped 90 percent of the smoke at cold start? Just a little smoke at cold start now and a little antifreeze lost, but not in the oil only being burnt in the exhaust . Motor runs fine but don’t want to clogg up cooling system. Thanks Wes Neal.



          • BlueDevil Pro on January 3, 2023 at 11:41 am

            Wes-

            You would want to flush the cooling system prior to using the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer. A clean, free-flowing system is what will give the product the best chance of working properly.

            Thank you!

            Got an 85 Nissan 720 it’s got just a little bit of a leak cause I’ve noticed would I be better off draining everything and using the concentrated bottle then using the pour and go I’m looking to get at least another couple years out of the truck



          • BlueDevil Pro on February 27, 2023 at 8:40 am

            Thomas-

            You may use either of the two Head Gasket Sealers or the Head Gasket Repair. The Pour N Go Head Gasket Sealer is an easy to use, less concentrated formula that does not require the removal of the thermostat or a flush of the cooling system prior to use. BlueDevil Head Gasket Repair is also an easy to use product that is 2x more concentrated than the BlueDevil Pour N Go Head Gasket Sealer. Whereas the “Mechanic Approved” requires both the removal of the thermostat and a flush before applying the product; the 32 ounce is the strongest formula.
            The product with the yellow label will give you best overall results as long as you can remove the thermostat and flush the system prior to use. However, if the thermostat is difficult to remove or you would rather not then you can always use the “Pour N Go” Head Gasket Sealer or Head Gasket Repair.

            Thank you!

        • Jeffery on February 19, 2023 at 1:27 pm

          Because of the situation I was in I wasn’t able to drain that much of the coolant from the radiator. I used about 80% of the bottle. Will it still fix the gasket? Also should I add the remaining amount later?

          • BlueDevil Pro on February 20, 2023 at 9:12 am

            Jeffery-

            It is possible the product was still able to seal under those conditions. Have you noticed any improvement? Please contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 for further asssistance.

          I used your products before on my mini van and it was still holding after I got rid of the vehicle that was 5 years later so it does work well I’m needing to use it again on my Nissan Titan Crew cab 06 it’s not very bad but I want to ask if I can use it without the heater being ion because I bypassed the heater core it’s not fixable so can you tell me what to do in this case

          • BlueDevil Pro on August 12, 2024 at 8:42 am

            Calvin-

            The reason for the direction of putting the heat on, blower to the max, is to draw heat from the engine to help it from overheating during the 50 minute idle. As long as the engine isn’t going to overheat, you would still be able to use the product with the heater core bypassed.

            Thank you!

        So do you put the thermostat back in after you run through the BlueDevil process? I’m a novice about automobiles and looking for very specific instructions about using BlueDevil w/a 2003 Ford Expedition.

            do you think it would work if my car doesnt start



          • BlueDevil Pro on August 22, 2016 at 9:10 am

            Brandon-

            In order to get the benefit of the product, the vehicle would need to be able to idle for a full 50 minutes, without overheating or stalling out. Unfortunately, the car would not be a good candidate if the vehicle is unable to start.

            Thank you!

            Hi,I have a 2001-2005 Honda Civic 1.7 l which is also know for head gasket issues….Is it ok to add Bluedevil if you don’t have a blown hg just so it will seal that area or would it get hard and not work…I’m afraid my hg is going to blow but I don’t have any issues right now with it…Kevin



          • BlueDevil Pro on February 6, 2018 at 10:46 am

            Kevin-

            Thank you for asking about your Honda Civic. The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer should not be used as a preventative measure or preventative maintenance. It is only intended for water/coolant leaks. At this point, if you are not noticing a leak, it would not be appropriate to use the product. Hope this helps!

            Thank you!

          • Jerermiah on June 18, 2021 at 4:13 pm

            Does blue devil head gasket repair stop exaust from going in coolant?



          • BlueDevil Pro on June 21, 2021 at 8:19 am

            Jeremiah-

            Yes, the BlueDevil Head Gasket Repair would be able to treat a leak where combustion/exhaust gases are pumping into the cooling system. To give yourself the best overall chance of BlueDevil working successfully, in addition to the directions, you should remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak; this will be the spark plug from the cylinder with the low compression reading. If you are not sure which one that is, you may pull all of the spark plugs and will notice one will have a white-crystal-like substance on it and/or may look dirty; this is the plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50-minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and thus allowing the product to seal properly.

          • BlueDevil Pro on October 23, 2023 at 9:18 am

            John-

            As long as the system is clean and free-flowing, it wouldn’t matter whether you used coolant or just plain water when using the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer.

            You say to pull the spark plug on the leaking cylinder, what about on a 6.7 Cummins Diesel engine?



          • BlueDevil Pro on June 25, 2021 at 8:22 am

            Bill-

            Unfortunately, this recommendation would not be applicable for your Cummins Diesel, as you would not be able to pull the glow plugs. As long as the vehicle will maintain idle for the full 50 minutes, without overheating or stalling out, and you are not losing more than about a quart of water/coolant during that 50 minute run, you would still be a good candidate for the product.

            What symptoms is your Mercedes S550 having? The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer is specifically intended for water/coolant leaks, so if you’re experiencing the symtpoms of a blown head gasket, such as white smoke/steam billowing out of the exhaust pipe or have water/coolant mixing with the engine oil, you would be a good candidate for the product.

      • Richard Rivet on January 25, 2015 at 2:30 pm

        I have a 1999 honda passport with the v6 .I just purchased the Blue devil yellow lable and flush online but now I just realised that half of the engine has to come apart just to remove the thermostat. I can bypass the heater core but it is so much work to remove the thermostat that I may as well just change the gasket or is it possible to us the yellow lable without removing the thermostat?

        • BlueDevil Pro on January 27, 2015 at 10:17 am

          Richard-

          For best overall results the thermostat should be removed when using the 32 ounce BlueDevil (yellow labeled) Head Gasket Sealer. If it is going to be difficult to remove then you would be better off using the BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer due to the fact that it does not require the removal of your thermostat.

        What do I do if water leaked to the oil?? Do I have to do an oil change before doing the flush?? Or can I do the flush and sealant before an oil change?

        • BlueDevil Pro on February 2, 2015 at 1:41 pm

          Alex-

          Yes, you may still use the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer to seal the leak(s). For best results, you will want to change the oil before and after the BlueDevil process.

        I do not know a lot about cars and have done the test with he radiator cap off and it erupts like a volcano.I can’t afford the $2500 or more to replace the gasket, and I know I can’t remove all the stuff it says to so is it OK to use the 16oz or should I find some to help remove the thermostat and use the 32oz? There is no smoke /steam coming from the exhaust

        • BlueDevil Pro on September 19, 2015 at 10:24 am

          Mike,

          Thanks for your question about your blown head gasket. If your vehicle is a 4 or 6 cylinder than it should be fine to use the 16oz BlueDevil Pour-N-Go to seal your head gasket leak. If you have an 8 cylinder vehicle then we would recommend using the 32oz BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer.

          Let us know if you have any more questions!

            The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer only reacts to heat once, so it would be fine to drain the system completely and refill it with your regular 50/50 mix once the procedure is complete.

            You can not use the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer (32 oz. yellow label) without removing the thermostat and flushing the cooling system prior. If removing the thermostat is an issue, or if you’re really just looking to avoid doing so, we’d recommend using the BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer.

        • BlueDevil Pro on August 22, 2016 at 11:36 am

          Cornell-

          It wouldn’t necessarily do any harm in the cooling system, however, you would be limiting what the product would be able to do. The reason for flushing the radiator is to ensure you are performing the BlueDevil process in a clean, free-flowing system. Also, the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer (32 oz. yellow label) is specifically formulated to run with water in the system.

            Yes, at this point, you would be safe to flush the cooling system. We recommend using the BlueDevil Radiator Flush http://store.gobdp.com/radiator-flush-00204/. Flushing the system would not undo any of the seal the product already created.

            Have an 04 rendezvous and on top of all the other issues I’ve fixed, after reading here, Apparently I have a blown head gasket or leaking anyhow, as well. It’s still winter here so after checking the Web, I tried your product, It didn’t work, I can still drive the vehicle but it overheats somewhat when I stop. I’ve even Flushed it and Tried another Can of your Blue Devil, Still doesn’t work.

            I’ve added your product and it didn’t work, no where on the box or bottle did it say to remove the spark plug where the leak is. I was skeptical due to the fact I obviously have a small leak as I have some bubbles in overflow tank and wondered how your product would get into the damaged area if it was under pressure. Will your product still work for me tomorrow, if it has sat in the Engine overnight, I’m going to find and remove the plug, thanks.



          • BlueDevil Pro on March 11, 2024 at 9:05 am

            Glenn-

            The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer will still work if your vehicle is getting combustion/exhaust gases blowing into the cooling system and creating pressure. To give yourself the best overall chance of BlueDevil working successfully, in addition to the directions, you should remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak; this will be the spark plug from the cylinder with the low compression reading. If you are not sure which one that is, you may pull all of the spark plugs and will notice one will have a white-crystal-like substance on it and/or may look dirty; this is the plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50 minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and thus allowing the product to seal properly. Be sure to follow the guidelines for the proper amount to use based on the size of your cooling system.
            The product only goes through one heat cycle, so what you’ve already added will not continue to react or continue to seal. Did you notice any improvement? Please contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 for further assistance.

          The BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer is intended for use in 4 or 6 cylinder engines. You can still use the product in your Ford F-350, however, you would need more of the product to properly treat the system. Please contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 so that we can get a better idea of the cooling system capacity and be able to recommend the correct amount of the product to use.

          Hunter-

          I assume your question is asking about changing the oil in your vehicle in regards to using the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer. If you are getting water/coolant into the oil, we recommend changing the oil before and after the BlueDevil process.

          • Moe on August 25, 2024 at 9:28 am

            Hello, in addition, to this responce. I also have this issue & should I drain and clean out radiator as well along with oil change? I was thinking of draining both systems. Adding new oil & little water/coolant mixture but not too much that it’ll mix back with oil again. THEN, start the slow process of using the “Blue Devil Pour N’ Go”. Would this be recommended approach to my oil/coolant mixture? Like I said, I didn’t want it to mix back up, so I’d prob add about 30-40% back into the radiator to prevent the product from being dilluted with oil. Any advice on this project would be great, thank you!



          • BlueDevil Pro on August 26, 2024 at 8:39 am

            Moe-

            Everything you mentioned sounds fine, except for the water/coolant fill. Keep in mind, the vehicle will need to maintain idle for a full 50 minutes, without overheating or stalling out. The cooling system should be filled, leaving just enough room for the recommended amount of BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer. The product is intended for leaks that are seeping or lightly dripping. If you are losing water/coolant too quickly, you would lose the product just as quickly, and wouldn’t be able to keep it in the system long enough in order to get the benefit of using it.

            Thank you!

          • Kirstin Burrage on May 7, 2019 at 6:10 pm

            I have a 2014 Nissan Frontier that is loosing all of the coolant through the overflow tank. It boils out. So I’m guessing gas is getting out of the chamber. It doesn’t state on the bottle that I need to remove a spark plug, tho I read it in the comments here. Removing a spark plug from my truck is almost as serious as replacing the head gasket. What should I do? Will anything work?



          • BlueDevil Pro on May 8, 2019 at 9:15 am

            Kristin-

            Thank you for asking about your Nissan Frontier. Removing the spark plug is an additional recommendation we make when the vehicle has the symptom of combustion/exhaust gases pumping back into the cooling system. Unfortunately, it is a more extreme kind of leak, usually attributed to warped/cracked heads. In order to get the benefit of using the product, you would want a clean, free-flowing cooling system. If combustion/exhaust gases are getting into the system, the system is being over-pressurized, and the circulation of water/coolant is being restricted. Removing the spark plug from the affected cylinder would give the product the best chance of circulating and sealing properly.

            Thank you!

            -BDP



          • Kirstin on May 8, 2019 at 1:38 pm

            I’m in the process of using the yellow label blue devil’s now. While idling, my 2014 Nissan Frontier does not boil all of the water out of the resavoir. Why is that? As soon as it hits the pavement, it starts boiling out, as if it’s allergic to the road. Lol I can’t take a spark plug out, I would have to take half of the manifold off.
            Also, the entire time it has been idling, the radiator fan has not come on. It’s 85 degrees here today, shouldn’t it have come on by now? My Nissan isn’t overheating. Yet… But it’s not boiling out water yet either.



          • BlueDevil Pro on May 8, 2019 at 3:43 pm

            Kristin-

            It sounds like it will be able to idle the full 50 minutes without removing the spark plug. Feel free to contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 with any other questions.

        • BlueDevil Pro on May 2, 2017 at 3:57 pm

          Denika-

          BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer should be added directly through your radiator cap.

          If your vehicle only has a reservoir/overflow rather than a radiator cap, instead of pouring BlueDevil through the reservoir/overflow, with the car off and engine cold you should disconnect the top radiator hose and add the product there; do not pour it into the overflow bottle. Once it has been added reconnect the hose and start the idle from that point.

          Thank you!

          • Gary Ward on January 30, 2023 at 12:03 am

            On my 2002 ford escape 3.0 I have 2 hoses at top of radiator,smaller comes from reservoir and the larger is just below it. The larger doesn’t go to the thermostat,the lower large hose does, and when I pull the large top hose to pour blue devil in water starts pouring out of the hole where it was connected. I’m just wandering is this where I pour it into? Every thing I read says top hose goes to thermostat n bottom to water pump but on mine top goes passed the thermostat and the bottom straight to the thermostat. Should I pour into the smaller hose directly above the large one?



          • BlueDevil Pro on January 30, 2023 at 9:53 am

            Gary-

            Thank you for asking about your Ford Escape. Yes, it would be fine to add the product through the smaller hose on top of the radiator. You would do so with the vehicle off and engine cold. Once the product has been added, reconnect the hose, and then start the idle from that point.

          • BlueDevil Pro on August 1, 2019 at 8:49 am

            Josh-

            Thank you for asking about your Toyota Solara. Based on your description, it’s possible that you are getting combustion/exhaust gases pumping back into the cooling system. You can use a “Block Dye Tester” to confirm whether or not that is the case.
            BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer will still work if your vehicle is getting combustion/exhaust gases blowing into the cooling system and creating pressure. To give yourself the best overall chance of BlueDevil working successfully, in addition to the directions, you should remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak; this will be the spark plug from the cylinder with the low compression reading. If you are not sure which one that is, you may pull all of the spark plugs and will notice one will have a white-crystal-like substance on it and/or may look dirty; this is the plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50 minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and thus allowing the product to seal properly. Be sure to follow the guidelines for the proper amount to use based on the size of your cooling system.

            Thank you!

          Tyrone-

          The BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer only reacts to heat once. After the initial 50 minute idle and you shut the vehicle off, the product will not continue to react or continue to seal. You are fine to leave the product in the system, or you can drain the system and start over with a clean 50/50 mix, either way would be fine.

          It would not harm anything to run the engine with the thermostat removed. The engine will run at a lower temperature so you may notice the heater does not produce hot air. However, most likely you will not need the heater during this time of year.

        • BlueDevil Pro on July 27, 2020 at 8:31 am

          Jamie-

          The best way to get around the thermostat housing is by taking the thermostat and modifying it so that the middle piece does not close; you may remove this piece or gut the middle of the thermostat. By doing so you will create a free flow and still be able to have the full housing installed. The thermostat should remain “open” while BlueDevil circulates through the system. Once the BlueDevil procedure is complete you will need to replace the thermostat.

        I was just in a bad car accident and now I’m down to just one truck and it has blown head gasket and I’m so hurt that I can’t remove the Thermostat will the product still work good If I just do blue devil and then oil change will it fix the problem I hope so I have a 5.9 dodge

        • BlueDevil Pro on October 5, 2020 at 3:55 pm

          Kountry-

          Thank you for asking about your Dodge. The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer ( 32 oz. yellow label) will give you best overall results as long as you can remove the thermostat and flush the system prior to use. However, if the thermostat is difficult to remove or you would rather not then you can always use the “Pour N Go” Head Gasket Sealer or Head Gasket Repair. The products may be added with fresh antifreeze or water. Based on your cooling capacity, you should apply 32 ounces of BlueDevil.

          Thank you!

        I have a chevy 454 how many bottles would have to use?

        • BlueDevil Pro on November 30, 2020 at 9:50 am

          Anthony-

          One bottle of the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer should be sufficient for your Chevy 454. There is a cooling system capacity table on the back of the bottle which would show you how much product to use, per the vehicle you’re working with.

          Thank you!

        Can you apply the Pour N Go formula and if your results work can u flush system and then add the Yellow Label 32 ounce

        • BlueDevil Pro on December 23, 2020 at 1:42 pm

          Ogreatone-

          The product should not be used as a preventative measure/maintenance. If you are not continuing to lose coolant after using the BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer, it would not be necessary to add anymore. Once the product seals, it would be a permanent seal.

          Thank you!

        In my Silverado the thermostat is made in the thermostat housing so can you put it in with the thermostat in place

        • BlueDevil Pro on March 15, 2021 at 10:34 am

          Daniel-

          The best way to get around the thermostat housing is by taking the thermostat and modifying it so that the middle piece does not close; you may remove this piece or gut the middle of the thermostat. By doing so you will create a free flow and still be able to have the full housing installed. The thermostat should remain “open” while BlueDevil circulates through the system. Once the BlueDevil procedure is complete you will need to replace the thermostat.

          Thank you!

        • BlueDevil Pro on September 9, 2021 at 8:17 am

          Charlotte-

          Thank you for asking about your PT Cruiser. The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer is able to treat warped heads. As long as the vehicle will maintain idle for a full 50 minutes, without overheating or stalling out, and you are not losing more than about a quart of water/coolant during that 50-minute run, you would be a good candidate for the product.

          Roland-

          The product with the yellow label (32 ounce) will give you best overall results as long as you can remove the thermostat and flush the cooling system prior to use. If you are unable to remove the thermostat, or doing so it just too time consuming, the Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer (16 ounce) would be the next best option.

        • BlueDevil Pro on January 17, 2022 at 9:09 am

          Amy-

          Thank you for asking about your Ford 500. If your vehicle only has a reservoir/overflow rather than a radiator cap, instead of pouring BlueDevil through the reservoir/overflow, with the car off and engine cold you should disconnect the top radiator hose and add the product there; do not pour it into the reservoir. It may be added into the hose or the opening on the radiator. Once BlueDevil has been added, reconnect the hose and start the idle from that point.

          The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer (32 oz. yellow label) would be the best product to use for your 8-cylinder. Be sure to follow the cooling system capacity table on the back of the bottle to ensure the proper amount of product is used.

          Eddie-

          Combustion/exhaust gases pumping into the cooling system, with no other symptoms, would typically be a sign of warped/cracked heads. Water/coolant mixing in with the engine oil and/or white smoke/steam billowing out of the exhaust pipe would be the tell-tale signs of a blown head gasket. Hope this helps.

        I will tell you this. Blue devil IS the best of the best. I’ve used it 7 times in my lifetime and I have been successful all 7 times. One car I drove it for 3 years and sold it to my brother and he drove it another year and a half before he got t boned in a intersection. I don’t care what anybody and I mean anybody says it’s a miracle in a bottle if you follow directions. I’m not a salesman for blue devil I’m just an average American telling the truth. I’m amazed by this product.

      • Michael on June 28, 2024 at 10:29 am

        I just put the pour and go into my car and let it run 50 minutes. Now how long until I can drive again? I saw a review that said let it sit 48 hours, but can’t find any official information.

        • BlueDevil Pro on July 1, 2024 at 8:32 am

          Michael-

          After the 50 minute idle is complete, you would shut the engine off and allow it to completely cool (at least 2 hours). After the cool down, you may top the system off and take the vehicle for a test drive. It doesn’t have to sit overnight or for 48 hours.

          The BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer still carrries a very high success rate, just slightly less than that of the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer (32 oz. yellow label). Removing the thermostat and flushing the radiator in it self will help improve your chances of success with the product. A clean, free-flowing system is what will give the product the best chance of working properly. Hope this helps.

        The reason removing the thermostat is required is to create a free-flowing system. It would help out with the overall circulation of coolant throughout the system and also help the vehicle from overheating during the 50 minute idle. Failure to remove the thermostat would limit the effectiveness of the product. Feel free to contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 with any other questions.

        Not removing the thermostat, with use of the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer (32 oz. yellow label), would greatly limit the effectiveness of the product.

      When you’re using a concentrated sealer if you do not flush your system and get rust and debris out this stuff will harden and take to all that rust and literally build up like a block in small crevices like a thermostat at a lock it up… If you have a really clear system after flushing you can pour it in your top hose right on top of your thermostat I’ve done it with the smaller bottle twice now but I must say doing it with a bigger bottle you might want to but I’ve seen pictures of cut open heater cores and radiators and this stuff will literally Harden like a rock into the entire cavity if you don’t get that rust out or any leftover stuff from the corrosive gasoline getting in and that’s in the case of a breach like mine where the exhaust is constantly blowing into the coolant system… but I washed my steam go away in 15 minutes and it’s 90% sealed up I’m pretty sure the only way I’m going to get it sealed up is if I disable the cylinder matter fact I’m going to make sure and ask these guys that question

      • BD Auto Pro on June 5, 2019 at 11:58 pm

        Lois,

        Thanks for your question! Yes if your oil has water in it, which will make it looky milky white or light brown if it is mixed in then yes you should definitely drain the water and oil and add fresh oil. We would recommend possibly doing this again after 500 miles to make sure you’ve got all the water out of your oil. Also, driving your car regularly after you remove the water will help get the last little bit of moisture out through the PCV system.

        Thanks again for your question!

        Thank you for asking about your Chevy Tahoe. If your vehicle only has a reservoir/overflow rather than a radiator cap, instead of pouring BlueDevil through the reservoir/overflow, with the car off and engine cold you should disconnect the top radiator hose and add the product there; do not pour it into the reservoir. It may be added into the hose or the opening on the radiator. Once BlueDevil has been added, reconnect the hose and start the idle from that point.

        I used the pour and go bottle a few weeks ago but still seeing small amount of bubbles in my coolant reservoir. No white smoke or oil/coolant mix that I can tell. Dry plugs.
        Can I use the yellow label after using the pour and go if I flush my radiator and remove thermostat?

      My truck does not have a heater so therefore I cannot turn it on while pouring Blue devil do it yourself easy to use head gasket sealer! So will it still work when I pour it into my 97 dodge Laramie 5.9 1500 truck?

      • BlueDevil Pro on March 13, 2023 at 9:45 am

        Hensley-

        Thank you for asking about your Dodge Laramie. The reason for the direction to put your heater on with the blower to the max, is to help draw heat from the engine to help it from overheating during the 50-minute idle. As long as it isn’t going to overheat, you would still be fine to use the product.

        Thank you!

      The mechanic did not remove the thrermastate, what will this do to the car, can I remove it and put a new one on, he just did it today, but he said that the fan was not coming on prior because of coolant temp sensor that need to be replaced, but now he saying that the thermostat is stuck

      • BlueDevil Pro on April 13, 2023 at 8:38 am

        Mingo-

        If the mechanic was using our BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer (32 oz. yellow label) and failed to remove the thermostat, it would greatly reduce the chances of the product’s ability to be successful. You can try replacing the thermostat and coolant temp sensor, if needed. If the problem persists, it could be the problem is a faulty fan clutch, which would need to be replaced in order to have the fans kick on.

        Thank you!

    This product flat out works. I had a rebuilt motor that for whatever reason started to overheat after 8,000 miles. Air was getting into the cooling system to the point that the vacuum was displaced by that air so coolant was not returning to the radiator from the overflow tank. Followed the instructions including removing the thermostat and flushed through about 15 gallons of water through the system. Put in straight water and ran it for 50 minutes. It passed three tests; the block test, the champagne test and a two hour road test. Magic!

  3. brian sperry on May 7, 2013 at 8:22 pm

    I’m trying to use the pour-n-go on a 1986 isuzu trooper, but every time I start the engine without the radiator cap on, coolent shoots out of where the radiator Cap should go. Am I supposed to be pouring it into the reservoir or directly into the radiator? If I’m supposed to pour it into the radiator I don’t understand how its possible to do so.

    • BlueDevil Pro on May 20, 2013 at 2:27 pm

      If your vehicle has a reservoir rather than a radiator cap, instead of pouring it through the reservoir, with the car off and engine cold, you may add the product through the top radiator hose. Once it has been added reconnect the hose and start the idle from that point.

      Based on what you have stated, it appears that you are getting combustion gases blowing back into the cooling system creating pressure and causing the coolant to blow out through the top of your radiator. To give yourself the best overall chance of the product working successfully, in addition to the directions, I would remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak. To find the “bad plug” you may pull all of the spark plugs, you should notice one will have a white-crystal-like substance on it and/or may look dirty; this is the plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50 minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and allow the product to seal properly.

      • Jacob on February 2, 2014 at 6:58 pm

        I have a similar problem. I know its a gasket leak and I am trying to apply blue devil because I cannot afford the hardware fix. But when I start my car and turn the heater on the radiator fluid is not being sucked through the engine and at first back flows through my radiator cap and overflows. Is this the same issue with combustion gasses causing to much back pressure?

        • BlueDevil Pro on February 6, 2014 at 5:38 pm

          Jacob, Could you call our 18888630426 line to discuss?

  4. Shawon on May 14, 2013 at 4:25 pm

    Went I take the thermostat out to flush leave it off for good are put it back went I use blue devil head gaskets sealer

    • BlueDevil Pro on May 20, 2013 at 2:22 pm

      You will leave the thermostat out for the full 50 minute idle with the BlueDevil. Once the idle is complete you will then shut the vehicle off and allow it to cool for at least 2 hours. After it has cooled, you may then reinstall your thermostat.

  5. Mike on May 21, 2013 at 12:35 pm

    I used another brand sealer first(I dident hear of your product yet).
    will Blue Devil work if I use it after I flush the system?

    • BlueDevil Pro on May 21, 2013 at 1:05 pm

      Yes, it can still work in this situation. We would strongly recommend running BlueDevil Radiator Flush (https://gobdp.com/radiatorflushproduct.html), or a comparable flush, to clean your cooling system and remove the prior product that you had previously added.

      Feel free to contact us with any further questions.

      • Mike B on May 23, 2013 at 11:45 pm

        I never could really believe it until I saw it. BLUE DEVIL HEAD GASKET SEALENT WORKS! No BS, I have a 1999 Cadillac Deville that was starting to vent coolant out the exhaust, skipping badly, and a flashing check engine light for a bad misfire.
        After the proper flushing of the system and adding the Blue Devil( (properly)) it cleared up before my eyes. The next day after a test drive it ran like it was brand new. No codes at all, and no skip at all. My temps never went above 193 even at idle.
        For all of the people who say it can’t work, Face it. Your dead wrong. Follow the directions right and it will work. I have to admit I did not think it would work. I stand corrected. Thank you Blue Devil! You now have a loyal customer for life.

  6. Lee Taylor on May 26, 2013 at 4:10 pm

    THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU a 1000 times thank you for this product! I was all set to do a head gasket replacement on a 2000 Ford Ranger with 170000 miles that ran good but would not pass smog in California. It had a head gasket leak around cylinder #5. I ran across videos of Blue Devil gasket sealer on youtube and started checking into it. I found that it was a well known “secret” among the used car dealers and mechanics in the area. The bottom line is that it worked just like it said and was easy and inexpensive to use. My truck passed smog and runs better than ever!!! I will definately put the word out that this is a fantastic product. Thanx again from a very satisfied customer!

  7. Mike B on June 10, 2013 at 8:44 pm

    I am trying this on another Cadillac Deville after working fantastic on my first one. This one is a 2000 the last was a 99. While I was letting it idle for the required 50 min at around the 48 min mark it went into the red. Should I wait to flush the product and let it cool off and run it again? Or should I still flush it. I could not test drive do to the running in red.

    • BlueDevil Pro on June 11, 2013 at 12:50 pm

      Yes, you should allow the vehicle to cool down completely (at least 2 hours) before driving or running it any more. Once it has cooled you can then take it on a test drive to see where it’s at. It is possible that it has still worked properly even though the vehicle was starting to heat up toward the end of the 50 minutes.

      Once the vehicle has cooled and you have a chance to drive it let us know if the vehicle is still experiencing any symptoms. If not, you should be good to go.

  8. sean on June 13, 2013 at 12:42 am

    my car is 2003 vanture van.3.4L engine .sympttailpipeoverheat, combustion gas went into coolant, coolant wont return. presure in coolant is higher than nomal , the heater hose is very hard when squizz. now the symptom is more offen. in first 5 min driving , overheat,pull over , and turn off engine, opened air blizz valve to get air out. opened cap of radiator ,let cooant ho back to radiator, then it is ok to drive more than 50km ,even in highway. next day, same problem. i thought :after i start engine, combustion air or gas went into coolant. after the engine was heat up, the leak stopped or particularly stopped. I guess.didnot notice big white smoke came out from tailpipe.
    question: is blue devil can fix this small leak?
    thanks.

    • BlueDevil Pro on June 26, 2013 at 1:47 pm

      As long as it will idle for a full 50 minute period without overheating or stalling out you should have no problems. I would also recommend removing the spark plug from the affected cylinder to reduce the pressure buildup within the cooling system. Removing that plug will relieve a majority of the compression blowing into the cooling system and and allow BlueDevil a better chance at sealing.

      If it isn’t able to run for that period the BlueDevil may not have a chance to work properly.

      Please contact us with any further questions.

      • Latoya Taylor on November 10, 2014 at 4:49 pm

        • BlueDevil Pro on November 11, 2014 at 9:36 am

          Latoya-

          If it was unable to run the full recommended 50 minutes without overheating then there is a chance that it may not work. Please contact us at 888-863-0426 and we would be happy to discuss your vehicle and a possible solution.

  9. Galen Manapat on June 14, 2013 at 4:25 pm

    When I use this, after the initial 50 minutes of running, does the water / B/Devil chemical mix remain in the system ? Can it remain in the system to plug “future leaks” ?

    Is there any point in removing the mix (after the treatment) and letting the system cure “dry” ?

    • BlueDevil Pro on June 26, 2013 at 1:29 pm

      It may remain in the system but it does not continue to seal. However, once sealed it creates a permanent repair. There is no reason to let the system air dry.

  10. Charles B on June 23, 2013 at 5:31 am

    I have a blown head gasket on a Chevrolet diesel truck. I read the advice on how to add sealer when the radiator doesn’t have a cap by adding the sealant to the top radiator hose. I also have combustion gasses coming through my cooling system. How do I locate and disable the cylinder when there is no spark plug?

    • BlueDevil Pro on June 26, 2013 at 1:49 pm

      You are correct in pouring it through the top hose rather than the reservoir. However, due to the fact that your vehicle is a diesel it has glow plugs rather than spark plugs. You will be unable to disable the affected cylinder. Therefore, we would not recommend running the BlueDevil with your specific situation.

    I poured it directly into the overflow rather than pulling the radiator hose. Will I be ok? Also, what is a “compatible antifreeze to use with this once I restore my thermostat and refill the system?

    • BlueDevil Pro on July 2, 2013 at 1:36 pm

      The best method is pouring directly through the radiator hose when you only have access through the reservoir. It should still work but for future reference we recommend using the top hose. You can use any factory recommended anti-freeze.

    I have an 89 Buick century sedan, I found out it was an head gasket issue, there was some oil in the reserv overflow, however…no white smoke out the tail, but the engine does run very rough.
    I purchased the Headgasket sealer, but a “mechanic” told me I didn’t have to change out the thermostat.I already have the new thermostat part ready to be installed by someone that knows how, I think he did’nt want to do it because he had said earlier to me that mine was hard to get to.
    he added it, but when I went to pick up the car…the car was off!
    I went ahead and took my car home, let it idle for an hour and an half, shut it off and started it later on that day, and at first it sounded like a brand new engine! Like a new car really.
    I drove it, and it rode like a dream.
    Later on that day–it was in the 90’s in florida–I drove to walmart….and the car was smoking some around the engine, and it started running a little rough again, like it was overheating too a little.
    My questions are:
    I know I need to have that thermostat installed, but should I also add another bottle of bluedevil?
    someone said to me that could lock my motor up? is that true?
    what about that pour-n-go? is that safer? should I use that now?
    I really need my car, and I cannot afford a regular repair. What Should I do?
    Thanks in advance—-Vo

    I have a 2003 toyota camry 4 cylinder with a blown head gasket due to the cooling failure when the water pump went. I used the 16oz bottle and it fixed 2 of the 3 cylinder misfiring. Then I decided to try one more 16oz. hoping to fix the remaining problem. It still has the problem of misfiring in one cylinder after the first test drive. Any suggestion, the car will run but not 100% due to the one cylinder not working. Thanks and I will really appreciate your help. God bless.

I drove my car home about 20 min away…car still overheated…few days later…test drove…overheated and white smoke still…..A week later, I started my car, no smoke no overheat but still running rough and I put in drive and cut off.

    I have a 4 cyl 97 honda accord. I found oil in the water and the techs at work told me it’s the head gasket. I’ve heard great things about blue devil and am about to attempt to use it. However, I’m going to use the 16oz bottle because i dont really have enough money for the 32. But i heard the 32 is more concentrated. Does that mean the 16 oz wont work for as many miles as the 32? I had the same problem with a 98 mercury sable and used some off brand sealant for the local auto parts store. It ran for at least 20,000 miles and would have gone farther if I hadnt ran it with ice in the lines (ran out of coolant a day before the first frost of the year. How many miles can i typically expect to get out of the 16 oz bottle. I dont drive aggressively and only about 25 or 30 miles a day. Id appreciate any input. I hope this works.

      No, you do not need to flush the system afterward. Once the BlueDevil process is complete and the engine has cooled you may simply drain the cooling system and refill with the factory recommended antifreeze. There is no risk of “gel” forming within the system.

    Hello,I bought today,8/29/2013,a bottle of the 32oz blue devil,I have a 2001 Chev s10 with a 2.2 in it,apparently it has a bad head and the compression goes to the radiator,so for what I have been reading I have to remove one of the spark plugs in order to successfully complete the process,my question is,what happens if the truck starts running hot after 10 min of running it?will my four cylinder still run without one of the spark plugs?

    • BlueDevil Pro on September 3, 2013 at 1:09 pm

      In order for BlueDevil to work properly the vehicle must be able to idle for a full 50 minute period without stalling out or overheating.

      Based on what you have stated, it sounds like the vehicle is getting combustion gases blowing into the cooling system creating pressure and causing the coolant to blow back out through the top of your radiator. To give yourself the best overall chance of the product working successfully, in addition to the directions, you should remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak. If you pull all of the spark plugs, you will notice one will have a white-crystal-like substance on it and/or may look dirty; this is the plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50 minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and thus allowing the product to seal properly.

      Before using the product we recommend that you pull the plug from the affected cylinder and then run the vehicle to see if it will maintain an idle for 50 minutes. You should only use the product if the vehicle is able to run for the full 50 minutes.

One month into owning this, after discussing symptoms and location of a coolant leak with a mechanic brother of mine, we suspect it has a LIM gasket leak. Will this product work for that? We can NOT afford to pay upwards of $1000 to replace the gasket. We should have researched this vehicle more thoroughly, but ran a carfax that came back clean, so we felt confident in the purchase.

    Wow – what a product. I have an old 1999 Plymouth Voyager Van with 175k miles on it that I use occasionally for picking up wood for my woodworking shop. Around 4 weeks ago it started to overheat with the symptoms of a leaking head gasket. The vehicle is not worth doing a head job on so I thought I would try a sealant first. Initially I used one of your competitors (well known) products and it did not work a hoot. I was about the get the vehicle towed to the breakers yard when I thought I would have one last repair attempt using your product after seeing it on You Tube. I followed the instructions exactly and with no real thoughts of success started the vehicle. After 50 minutes of idling guess what – no overheating. I then drove for the vehicle for over 50 miles and it drove spot on with absolutely normal temperatures. Blue Devil has given my old van some more life! This product works fantastic and I highly recommend it. Many Thanks to the Blue Devil team.

    I decided to try your product on my 2002 Pontiac Grand Am 3.4L , I had a cold start misfire problem and this morning it didn’t go away like normal . I did some tests and determined it had a blown head gasket so i went down to AutoZone and bought a 16 oz pour and go bottle . I let the car completely cool down and poured it through the top hose and started it . within less than 5 minutes the misfire went away, I let it run at idle for about an hour and so far it seems to have fixed the problem . I will see how things go for a few days and let you know. Thanks for a great product. well worth the $38 if it holds up.

    I have a 97 Chevy Malibu and having misfires and head gasket problems. My vehicle was juddering, engine light flashing and rough idling. I took my vehicle for scanning and received codes P0300 + P0302. To my understanding cylinder #2 has issues. I checked the dipstick the oil looked like mud and oil cap looked like mayonnaise. I know there’s a hole in the head gasket, maybe near cylinder #2. Would your product seal the head gasket? As I’d been hearing good things about your product. Please advise.

    Thanks,
    Alex

    I have a 2000 Ford ranger xlt V6 3.0 with water and white smoke coming out of the tail pipe, yes one of the wires from the spark plugs has some dried up mud like residue, and white crystal like substance around where the spark plug goes. Will Blue Devil stop that problem?
    I would appreciate your answer pretty much. Thank you, and my god bless you.

    • BlueDevil Pro on January 13, 2014 at 3:06 pm

      Based on what you have stated, it appears the vehicle is getting combustion gases blowing into the cooling system creating pressure and causing the coolant to blow back out through the top of your radiator. To give yourself the best overall chance of the product working successfully, in addition to the directions, you should remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak. It sounds like you have clearly located the “dirty” plug; this is the spark plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50 minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and thus allowing the product to seal properly.

      Feel free to contact us with any further questions.

  32. kevon on January 12, 2014 at 11:19 pm

    I didnt take out thermastat when i put the yellow label blue devil sealer. I poured product directly into hose that leads to radiator and when reached normal operating temp i poured some into overflow tank will it still work?

    • BlueDevil Pro on January 13, 2014 at 2:29 pm

      For proper results, Thermostat removal IS required for installation of this product. The directions on the bottle must be followed during application.

  33. kent adams on January 30, 2014 at 3:57 am

    hi, i just bought some of the yellow label blue devil, and i have one question, i am a bit confused about the thermostat issue..after letting it idle for 50 minutes do i take it for a test drive or let it cool down and replace the thermostate? do you replace the thermostate before or after the test drive and how long od a test drive do you take?.thanks

    kent

  34. Junior G on February 3, 2014 at 7:08 am

    I completed the directions. My question is… Can I leave the water/sealant in the motor for the next 24 hrs or do I have to replace the water/sealant with antifreeze? Will the water/sealant freeze. Temperature will drop to 15’F.

  35. Jared on February 4, 2014 at 4:09 am

    I have a 94 ford explorer I used the seal and go product. I followed the instructions as stated. After the 50 minute idle period we changed the oil cause it had coolant in it. I did this at a auto shop in the lot. After that I drove my vehicle home 10 miles, it ran great. I didn’t drive my explorer again until the next day. I woke up and got ready to go to work at the ski resort. On the way to work in the snow storm my vehicle overheated coolant bubbling from the top of the radiator cap. I was able to get my car running again and drove it back to town. Now the radiator leaks a bit, my oil is coffee colored and I pour out white exhaust more than before. I am willing to try your product again. I feel that when I drove it home from the shop that was my mistake. I was wondering if that is where I messed up. What should I do different next time I use the product. I need my car running as soon as possible. Thank you for your help!

  36. Joe on February 8, 2014 at 8:54 am

    I have a 1994 Ford Bronco XLT. For the model year, the mileage is exceptionally low (averaging approx. 7500/ yr), only 150k miles on a 20 year old truck. I blew my head gasket last weekend subsequent to spending a night stuck in a glorified puddle after trying to pull a friend loose. After a basic garden hose test of my radiator, I believe my gasket failed secondary to critical fluid levels, potentially due to damage to the lower radiator hose. I have purchased Blue Devil Yellow Label. The truck down idles frequently, and I am concerned as to whether it can idle for 50 minutes. Will the product still perform if I have to restart the truck or add additional water/ coolant during the process? Also, will 1 quart of product be sufficient to seal both the head gasket and the radiator hose leak?

    • BlueDevil Pro on February 10, 2014 at 7:45 pm

      For proper results, your Bronco should be able to idle a full 50 minutes and not lose more than about 1 quart of water during the idling. You will only need one 32 ounce bottle of BlueDevil to treat your vehicle.

      If it is unable to maintain an idle for 50 minutes then it may be a little bit too large of a leak for this to work properly. I would base your decision on whether to use it or not of whether or not it can maintain an idle for that period of time.

  37. jeremy on March 11, 2014 at 5:33 am

    Hi I have a 99 seville sts with the northstar 4.6l v8. I flushed the coolant system with autozones clean and flush per there products directions. With water in engine and their flush, it was boiling out of the reservoir. it did not do this with the coolant in it prior to draining. I have flushed and drained the system and im leaving it with no liquid in it overnight. What do you suggest I do to stop the boiling? Thermostat is removed. Thanks

    • BlueDevil Pro on March 11, 2014 at 3:20 pm

      Based on what you have stated, it appears the vehicle is getting combustion gases blowing into the cooling system creating pressure and causing the coolant to blow back out through the top of your radiator. To give yourself the best overall chance of the product working successfully, in addition to the directions, you should remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak. If you pull all of the spark plugs, you will notice one will have a white-crystal-like substance on it and/or may look dirty; this is the plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50 minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and thus allowing the product to seal properly.

  38. Robert on March 19, 2014 at 10:46 pm

    The coolant in the car is rusty brown in color a few days after doing a flush. There is a light brown colored residue stuck under the coolant cap. The coolant smells like exhaust, but there is no pressure or bubbling at the tank as far as I can see. With a new thermostat it blows coolant out the cap at random times. With the thermostat removed the car runs fine with temperature in the correct range. The plugs all look fine. Compression shows 175 lbs in 6 of 8 cylinders and 155 lbs in the remaining two adjoining cylinders. There is no sign of coolant on the dipstick or oil filler cap and there is no excessive steam out of the exhaust.

    In one of your earlier posts, you said the product would not work if oil is in the coolant. I think the rusty brown color indicates there is some oil in the coolant. I am wondering if I should give the blue devil sealer a try or wait for the problem to get worse.

    • BlueDevil Pro on March 20, 2014 at 7:30 pm

      If the brown residue you are seeing is in fact oil within the cooling system then you are correct, the product will not work. You may want to confirm on whether or not that is the case and if it is not oil then we would recommend the use of BlueDevil.

      In the case that it is not engine oil within the cooling system, there is an additional direction you may take to improve the success of our product. Because you are getting exhaust gases blowing into the cooling system you should remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak. If you pull all of the spark plugs, you will notice one will have a white-crystal-like substance on it and/or may look dirty; this is the plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50 minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and thus allowing the product the best shot at sealing properly.

    I used blue devil head gasket sealer yesterday on my car. I was told to let it dry for 48hr without starting the car. Do I need to let this stuff dry?? I used the 32oz bottle

    • BlueDevil Pro on April 24, 2014 at 6:09 pm

      After the 50 minute idle, you should allow the vehicle to cool down for at least 2 hours before driving it; you do not need to wait 48 hours.

  41. Jason T on April 28, 2014 at 9:35 pm

    I have a 98 Honda Accord. Over the past 4 months on a warm start my car has had trouble starting. The car rumbles for a few seconds then is normal. I believe it is trouble with one of the cylinders. I took it to Big O and they took out all of the spark plugs and started the car and fluid gushed out of one of the cylinders, which means there is a leak in the block. I do not have any noticeable gasses coming out of the exhaust. Can this problem be fixed with Blue Devil and if so, will the pour and go be a suitable option?

    • BlueDevil Pro on April 29, 2014 at 4:30 pm

      As long as the vehicle will start and be able to idle for a full 50 minute period without stalling out or overheating then you should have a great chance at this working properly. You may also want to make sure that you will not lose more than 1 quart of water during the 50 minute idle.

      If your vehicle is able to stay within those two guidelines you should have no problem sealing the leak.

  42. Ken Rates on May 7, 2014 at 12:00 pm

    I have a 02 Duramax diesel. What are the procedures for using the head gasket sealer? I don’t want to make any mistakes on using. Once I have flushed the system and ready for Blue Devil, do I just pour into a empty system, or do is put water in first? After the 40 minute running time and then cool down, do,I drain and install coolant? Thanks!

  43. James Badaczewski on July 9, 2014 at 1:16 am

    I put blue devil in my 2001 Cadillac devil and started to let my engine idle. after about 15 to 20 minutes my car started overheating. I shut off the car to let it cool down. is it going to hurt my car if I did that?

    • BlueDevil Pro on July 15, 2014 at 3:38 pm

      The product will not harm your engine in any way. However, if the vehicle was unable to idle for the full 50 minutes then that may be an indication that the leak is too large for BlueDevil to work properly.

      Please contact our warranty department at 888.863.0426

    • BlueDevil Pro on July 15, 2014 at 3:39 pm

      For best results, the vehicle should idle a full 50 minutes without being shut off in between. It will not cause any harm if did not run the full 50 minutes but you may not get the full benefit from the use of the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer.

  45. Alonna on July 17, 2014 at 11:54 pm

    I have a Mercruiser 4.3 V6 that was “rebuilt” last year and this year it seems to have a problem with water getting into the cylinders. I haven’t checked the plugs yet to see which cylinder is the culprit yet but water is getting in somehow. It could be a head gasket, worse a cracked head, or even worse a cracked block. Which of these problems will your product repair? Also what would be the procedure to use your product on an open loop cooling system that uses lake water?

    • BlueDevil Pro on August 7, 2014 at 6:03 pm

      Clay-

      First of all, in order to use the product you will need to create a closed loop cooling system. The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer will work in any of the instances you have listed. However, you will need to first be sure you can somehow create a closed loop.

    I have a 2000 bmw 740il with head gasket issue’s. I bought the blue 32oz bottle, follow all instruction. I only used half a bottle of blue devil. The car seems fine for the first 2 days, but now it’s blowing smoke from the exhaust again after parked for 2 hours. Should I pour the remaining half bottle in? I haven’t installed the thermostat, and I didn’t pour any coolant in the radiator yet, so should I add more blue devil? If so, how much more? What the correct amount for 2000 bmw 740il.

    • BlueDevil Pro on August 20, 2014 at 2:32 pm

      Using 1/2 of the bottle is the correct application for your BMW. It sounds like you had some temporary improvement after the initial application but some of the symptoms have since returned.

      We would recommend that you apply the 2nd half of the bottle. You will want to drain the system down and refill with water prior to adding the 2nd dose. The thermostat should remain out for the idling process.

    I have a Toyota truck with a rebuilt 22RE engine. My problem is not head gasket leak, but it is the gasket between the water pump and timing chain cover.
    It is a paper type gasket. It runs fine and no misfires or anything but a drip leak out of the mentioned gasket. Will this stuff repair this gasket if I follow the directions on your site?
    I already have the thermostat removed & no need to flush…radiator is brand new.
    Thanks

    • BlueDevil Pro on August 19, 2014 at 5:34 pm

      Jacob-

      No, BlueDevil is not intended to fix this type of leak. It sounds like you may need to replace the water pump. Unfortunately, in this instance we would recommend a hard part repair.

  50. Victoria on September 1, 2014 at 2:16 pm

    I have a 2002 Toyota Avalon. It has been over heating and we have replaced the spark plugs, all 6 coil packs, the coolant tank, radiator, and thermostat. Thus, we have come to the conclusion that there is an issue with our head gasket. When trying to use Blue Devil to fix our issue the car started overheating again, right around 25 minutes the car began to overheat again. Should we let the car run through the rest of the 50 minutes or let it cool down before we continue?

    • BlueDevil Pro on September 2, 2014 at 7:44 pm

      Victoria-

      You do not want to let the vehicle to continue its run if it is overheating. Running a vehicle at these high temperatures could potentially cause further damage.

      If the vehicle will not idle for a 50 minute period without overheating then it may just be too large of a leak for BlueDevil to work properly. Please contact our warranty department at 888-863-0426 and we would be happy to assist you in getting reimbursed.

    • BlueDevil Pro on September 26, 2014 at 12:42 pm

      You should drain your system down completely and refill it. Once you have done so you may go ahead and use the BlueDevil “Pour N Go”. One bottle is good for a 4 or 6 cylinder vehicle.

  52. Mike Davis on October 17, 2014 at 11:49 pm

    My 2002 Kia Rio has gotten hot several times. At least 6 times. I could hear water boiling until I finally found a small hose leaking water. Then, coolant fan would not turn on. Now, randomly, car does not idle well, idles at 2000 rpm, and drive a few days and starts to idle normal. Strange situation. Could it be a warped head, don’t see water in oil or oil in water.

    • BlueDevil Pro on October 22, 2014 at 8:30 pm

      Yes, it is possible that you have a warped or cracked head. You may want to have the vehicle further diagnosed so that you know exactly what you are dealing with.

      If you do find out that it is a warped or cracked head then you would be able to apply the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer.

    I have a ’96 CD5 Honda Accord that I had recently found out has a possible blown head and/or cracked cylinder head (compression test results in cylinder 1 pushing 180lbs). My mechanic had let me know that repairs are going to be somewhere in the $1500 range. Given that my car is well over a decade old, I was looking at two choices, 1) Invest over $1000 into a car that already has over 200,000 miles on the motor and chassis and maybe drive it around for another 2 to 3 years before it craps out or 2) Sell the car as is with a blown head gasket and maybe get $500 for it. I bought Blue Devil as a last resort, and based off consumer reports it was one of the leading brands when it comes to leaky head gaskets and cracked cylinder heads, plus with the money back guarentee I really had nothing to lose. I just installed Blue Devil product yesterday, and I’m very happy to be in that percentile where I can honestly say so far Blue Devil has saved my car! I had followed the instructions to a T, which I believe some people that have had bad experiences with Blue Devil or similar products, failed to do thus resulting in dissapointment. Prior to installation, my radiator fluid would have to be replenished at least once a day, if not 2-3 times a day depending on that days usage. After yesterday, the coolant levels are stable, theres no water or smoke exiting the tail pipe and my car no longer idles rough (Accord is a manual 5 speed, and before Blue Devil I’d sometimes have to lay on the throttle at a dead stop just above 2000 rpm, enough to keep it from idling rough and dying which it has before at a couple red lights). It is too soon to saythat it was a complete success for a fact, but I’m definetly not skeptical of the product considering it has already shown outstanding results. Thanks Blue Devil!

    I used the Pour-N-Go in my 2002 Jeep Liberty and it seemed to work for a couple of days. The only real symptom I have is the check engine light (P0303 code) and some coolant in my oil. I want to use it again because I put it in the reservoir rather than the top hose of the radiator. Will I need to flush the cooling system to remove the product that is in there or can I just add another bottle?
    Also will removing the spark plug from the 3rd cylinder really increase the chances of success?

    Corvette with1200 horsepower is what the engine produced. Using twin turbos. Creating 25 pounds of boost through a 7 liter v8. If you can imagine the amount of stress on the gasket. Its probably 10x that. This engine was worth $80,000. Under a full throttle run, the interior sleeve that holds the pistonit cracked right down the side and blew the head gasket on in the same swipe of fate. The car was bleeding coolant profusely. Smoking milky oil. The whole nine yards.

    I flushed the engine Religiously. To the point where you could drink the water then I changed the oil. I put Blue Devil In the system and let the car idle for an hour . The smoking from the tail pipes Went away the remainder of the moisture in the engine dissipated with heat. Into our absolute shockt

    The engine was like new.

    We took it out on the road andall for s**** and gigges and did a full throttle run at 25 pounds of boost which produces 1200 horsepower and ran it up to a hundred and fifty miles per hour. No smoke no anything. Car ran absolutely incredible

    Saved 10,000.00 dollars by using this amazing product. And to think it was under $70 bucks!!!!!!!!!!! Money back guarantee ain’t nothin better than that.

    I have a 2003 Audi a4 1.8t 3 days ago I turn my car in and It shows me Tht my coolant is low wasn’t getting heat quickly. Later on in the day I started to see white smoke.while driving the car I don’t see the smoke but as long as u stop the smoke comes out a lot it also gives off a scent of the coolant . For me the coolant tends to run down very fast I have witness the temperature gauge went to red for the very first time appreciate if u can tell me what’s wrong and if it’s the head gasket going bad and if so which would be the right product to use

    • BlueDevil Pro on December 1, 2014 at 2:56 pm

      Aaron-

      You may use either Head Gasket Sealer. The “Pour N Go” (16 oz./white label) is a less concentrated formula that does not require the removal of the thermostat or a flush of the cooling system prior to use. Whereas the “Mechanic Approved” (32 oz./yellow label) requires both the removal of thermostat and a flush before applying the product; the 32 ounce is the more concentrated formula.

      The product with the yellow label will give you best overall results as long as you can remove the thermostat and flush the system prior to use. With the use of either product, be sure to follow the guidelines for the proper amount to use. Based on your capacity, you will be using 16 ounces either way. I would still use a flushing agent to flush your cooling system prior to using the product to ensure proper results.

    I have 2005 Duramax LLY Diesel engine getting high pressure in cooling system. Will not bleed off over night. Looks like it may be Head casket or Head. Will your product help and if so. How do It.

    • BlueDevil Pro on December 9, 2014 at 2:36 pm

      Jerry-

      In a gasoline engine we would recommend pulling the spark plug from the affected cylinder to help relieve the pressure while BlueDevil was being used in the cooling system. However, you will not be able to do so on your diesel so we do not recommend using the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer in this instance. It will work on a diesel when you have water going into the oil or coolant leaking out through the exhaust (white smoke) but not with the combustion gases blowing into the cooling system.

    I have a 1996 ford taurus an i noticed that the antifreeze leaked in to my oil can i use this product or not

    • BlueDevil Pro on December 8, 2014 at 4:14 pm

      Sharita-

      Yes, you can definitely still use the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer and have success. You will want to change the oil before and after the BlueDevil process to ensure proper results.

    After taking the thermostat out and loosing some of the liquid (Blue devil + water) , can I replace the lost fluid with antifreeze 50/50, or does it have to be water? I actually did top it off with antifreeze, will this damage my vehicle or the cooling system?

    Thanks

    J Russell

    • BlueDevil Pro on February 18, 2015 at 2:15 pm

      Mr. Russell-

      Yes, you can top the system off with your 50/50 mix of antifreeze.

      -BDP

      • Kurt on October 23, 2015 at 11:52 pm

        I had the same question…does the Blue Devil/water mix have similar properties to a 50/50 coolant mix? Would it be safe to have, say, 10% standard coolant and 90% of the remaining Blue Devil solution as functional coolant?

        • BlueDevil Pro on October 29, 2015 at 8:37 am

          Kurt-a

          The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer does not have any properties of antifreeze. The product only reacts to heat once, after that it becomes inert. So once you have completed the 50 minute idle and shut the vehicle off, any extra BlueDevil in the system would be like water at that point. You can either drain all of the contents out and start over with fresh water and antifreeze or drain about half of the contents out and just add antifreeze for your 50/50 mix.

          Thank you!

  65. Andrew on April 1, 2015 at 11:48 pm

    I have a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with the 6.6l Duramax. I am getting some internal coolant loss. No signs of running hot or tail pipe blow by. I do have a loud exhaust leak type noise that i was told was a small leak in the headgasket. It does not drip.

    Will this product work for that repair?

    If so, how is it done since the radiator has no fill cap only a reservoir to add coolant.

    • BlueDevil Pro on April 2, 2015 at 9:06 am

      Andrew-

      Yes, we do recommend using the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer based on your symptoms.

      Since your truck only has a reservoir/overflow rather than a radiator cap, instead of pouring BlueDevil through the reservoir/overflow, with the car off and engine cold you should disconnect the top radiator hose and add the product there. Once it has been added reconnect the hose and start the idle from that point.

    it worked for me, saving me fifteen hundred dollars. Thanks so much Blue Devil. I ran it for a full hour, because after fifty minutes, I could see a small amount of smoke still coming out of the exhaust pipe, ten xtra minutes did the trick,. NO smoke, sealed everything perfect !!! This might buy me an extra year before getting a new vehicle or a new engine!!!! 🙂 very satisfied.

  67. Nicole on June 12, 2015 at 2:23 am

    I just had my car diagnose & found coolant mixed in the motor oil due to defective head gasket also found oil in spark plugs due to defective value cover gasket. Will the bluedevil pour & go head gasket sealant work & If i .use the bluedevil pour & go head gasket sealant will i still pass smog & is it permanent.

    • BlueDevil Pro on June 12, 2015 at 2:17 pm

      Nicole-

      Yes, we do recommend using the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer. For best results, you should change the oil before and after the process.

      If you are failing smog because of the steam coming from the tailpipe, due to the antifreeze leak, then this will help you pass your emissions test.

    I have a 2005 F250 6.0 diesel. It seems to be pressuring the cooling system. Will the 32 oz bottle work on this?

    • BlueDevil Pro on June 30, 2015 at 11:55 am

      Corey-

      If it were a gasoline engine we would recommend pulling the spark plug from the affected cylinder to relieve some of the pressure. However, this is not be possible on a diesel engine. For that reason, we would not recommend using the product for your application.

      The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer will work on diesel engines and higher compression engines but not when you are getting combustion gases pushing back into the cooling system.

      Thank You!

  69. Beatrice on July 10, 2015 at 10:29 pm

    I have a 99 oldsmobile silhouette with a blown head gasket and I was wondering since my husband replaced the water pump, radiator, heater hoses, and bottom hose should we bleed the air out of the system before we use Blue Devil? We tried to bleed the system before and it’s blowing back

    • BlueDevil Pro on July 15, 2015 at 6:52 pm

      Beatrice,

      Thanks for your question about your Oldsmobile Silhouette. You should bleed the cooling system as much as you can before you add BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer to ensure you get the best seal on your head gasket leak. First make sure you’ve removed the thermostat as instructed in the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer directions. Then, refill your system with water. With the thermostat removed, it will only take about a minute of idling to remove all the air from your system. Once that is complete just follow the directions from there!

  70. ron on August 3, 2015 at 1:43 am

    how can I use your product I have a 2004 Durango and when I remove the thermostat all the water runs out can I use it with thermostat in or what do I do

    • BlueDevil Pro on August 3, 2015 at 1:22 pm

      Ron-

      The way you can get around the thermostat with a housing is by taking the thermostat and modifying it so that the middle piece does not close; you may remove this piece or gut the middle of the thermostat. By doing so you will create a free flow and still be able to have the full housing installed. Once the process is complete you will need to replace the thermostat.

      Thank You!

    I have a ram 1500 with the 4.7 v8. I wanted to know if I could use two bottles of the 16oz pour n go head gasket sealer as I do not have the time or money to flush my system.

    • BlueDevil Pro on October 6, 2015 at 9:23 am

      Shayn-

      Yes, you can still use the BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer for your Dodge Ram 1500 but, you would need at least two bottles of the product. The amount of the Head Gasket Sealer used would be determined by the vehicle’s cooling system capacity. If the capacity is around 4.5 gallons, then two bottles would be enough. If the capacity is closer to 6 gallons, that would require three bottles. Feel free to contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 with any other questions.

  72. Frank on October 7, 2015 at 10:47 am

    I have a 2003 Subaru Legacy. I replaced the head gaskets because I had coolant in the oil. The gaskets fixed the coolant and oil issue but now I have exhaust gases coming through the radiator. I get very tiny bubbles at idle but will run without overheating. When I drive the vehicle it overheats within 5 minutes and blows the coolant reservoir cap off. I checked all of the spark plugs and they all look like new. How do I find which cylinder is leaking? Thanks.

    • BlueDevil Pro on October 8, 2015 at 8:29 am

      Frank-

      If you have checked all of the spark plugs and they appear ok, we recommend having a compression test performed. Whatever cylinder is reading with the lowest pressure, that is the spark plug you will want to have removed for the 50 minute idle. By keeping that spark plug out for the BlueDevil Process, it will reduce the amount of pressure building up in the cooling system, and allow the product to circulate and seal properly.

      Thank you!

      -BDP

  73. james on October 13, 2015 at 8:37 pm

    Do I leave all the plugs in while using your product…I have a 95 grand Marquis and coolant is sitting in 2 of the plug holes.do I take them out while using the product before I pour the product in..n pressure is in my overflow making it bubble..and my car runs like crap with white smoke coming out the tail pipe.. and I want accelerate over 10 mph..would this really fix my problem..my car been down for 4 months I miss it..glad I have 2..but I need this one also..please help

    • BlueDevil Pro on October 14, 2015 at 11:16 am

      James-

      Based on your description, it sounds like your vehicle may be getting combustion/exhaust gases blowing into the cooling system and creating pressure. To give yourself the best overall chance of BlueDevil working successfully, in addition to the directions, you should remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak; this will be the spark plug from the cylinder with a low compression reading. If you are not sure which one that is, you may pull all of the spark plugs and will sometimes notice one will have a white-crystal-like substance on it and/or may look dirty; this is the plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50 minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and thus allowing the product to seal properly.
      If your vehicle only has a reservoir/overflow rather than a radiator cap, instead of pouring BlueDevil through the reservoir/overflow, with the car off and engine cold you should disconnect the top radiator hose and add the product there. Once it has been added reconnect the hose and start the idle from that point.

      Thank you!

  74. Kurt on October 23, 2015 at 11:46 pm

    Just finished the 32 oz process on a 2002 Cavalier 2.2. Symptoms were typical…burning coolant in the combustion process with the billowing white smoke and gloppy, coolant-infused oil in the crankcase. Fortunately, the thermostat is easy to get to, although with the gasket being integral to the thermostat housing, I ended up gutting the old one to maintain seal and still allow free flow. I flushed the system, filled with water and added the Blue Devil. After about 10 minutes, I noticed that the low coolant light was on…I misjudged during the fill process and had not filled the system completely. I let it run the 50 minute course anyway and did not add any more water for fear that the cold water would affect the thermal properties of the process. I shut it down and went to work. Upon my return, I topped up the system and ran it for another 50 minutes while noticing a slow trickle from the head for the first couple of minutes. The second run did the trick and after a couple of test runs, the system is tight.

    Things that I believe contributed to the success of the application:

    Thorough cooling system flush.
    Completely full system on the second try.
    Allowing the product to sit outside so the temperature was the same as the water in the cooling system before application. it was a chilly morning and there would have been a 20-30 degree differential.
    Also found it helpful to use 50/50 oil and Marvel Mystery mix with new filter to clear the sludge from the engine. Drain again, another new filter and straight oil.

    I have a 2002 malibu which had an overheating issue. My son in law replaced the thermostat, coolant resevoir cap, coolant flush, changed the oil, replaced hoses, exhaust manifold gasket.

    • BlueDevil Pro on October 27, 2015 at 12:07 pm

      Pat-

      Based on your description, we would recommend using the BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer. As long as the vehicle can idle for 50 minutes without overheating or stalling out, and you are not losing more than about a quart of water/coolant, you should be able to see some good results from the product.

    • BlueDevil Pro on August 22, 2016 at 10:10 am

      Brandon-

      Thank you for asking about your Honda Accord. In order to get the benefit of the product, the vehicle would need to be able to idle for a full 50 minutes, without overheating or stalling out. Unfortunately, the car would not be a good candidate if the vehicle is unable to start.

    • BlueDevil Pro on January 19, 2017 at 3:58 pm

      Charles-

      Yes, the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer is compatible with Evans coolants.  However, for best results we recommend flushing your cooling system and refilling it with water prior to adding BlueDevil.  After the 50 minute idle is complete you will then allow the engine to cool down so that you may drain the system and refill it with your antifreeze.

    Hello I have a 2004 kia Sorento 4wd v6. I had the heater hose replaced because it was leaking coolant. After the replacement when my mechanic poured the coolant back into the reservoir it went directly into the oil, and the oil dipstick was mixed of coolant and oil. Will blue devil work or is my situation too bad? And after the flush and I pour In the blue devil, will it go directly into the oil as well?

    • BlueDevil Pro on June 9, 2017 at 10:45 am

However, when I poured the radiator flush in it just leaked right out where the thermostat had been. The thermostat on my Forester is located underneath the car, maybe that’s causing the problem? Is there a way I can still use the yellow label BlueDevil sealant (I’ve already purchased it)?

      Gregory-

      Thank you for asking about your Cadillac Deville. Yes, the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer (https://store.gobdp.com/head-gasket-sealer-38386/) is safe and compatible to use on your vehicle. If you have used another product previously, you would want to flush the cooling system prior to adding BlueDevil.
      It is also possible that you are getting combustion/exhaust gases pumping back into the cooling system. You can use a “Block Dye Tester” to confirm whether or not that is the case.
      BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer will still work if your vehicle is getting combustion/exhaust gases blowing into the cooling system and creating pressure. To give yourself the best overall chance of BlueDevil working successfully, in addition to the directions, you should remove the spark plug from the cylinder with the leak; this will be the spark plug from the cylinder with the low compression reading. If you are not sure which one that is, you may pull all of the spark plugs and will notice one will have a white-crystal-like substance on it and/or may look dirty; this is the plug you should pull. Leave that plug out for the 50 minute idle in order to relieve the pressure from building up and thus allowing the product to seal properly. Be sure to follow the guidelines for the proper amount to use based on the size of your cooling system.

      Thank you!

    I have the same car with the same problem and I can’t access the radiator. Can your product be added to the overflow tank?

    • BlueDevil Pro on August 27, 2018 at 9:49 am

      Stacey-

      If your vehicle only has a reservoir/overflow rather than a radiator cap, instead of pouring BlueDevil through the reservoir/overflow, with the car off and engine cold you should disconnect the top radiator hose and add the product there; do not pour it into the reservoir. It may be added into the hose or the opening on the radiator. Once BlueDevil has been added, reconnect the hose and start the idle from that point.

        What is a different between Radiator & Head gasket Sealer and Radiator & Block Sealer . Do you have one Sealer would work for both blown head gasket & cracked block?

        • BlueDevil Pro on July 2, 2019 at 8:57 am

          Lee-

          The BlueDevil Radiator & Block Sealer is intended to treat external leaks (seeps or light drips) coming from the radiator or from the block. The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer is the more concentrated product and would treat blown head gaskets, warped/cracked heads, leaking heater cores, leaking freeze plugs, leaking radiators and leaking blocks as well. Feel free to contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 with any other questions.

      The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer only reacts to heat once (one heat cycle). Was it able to idle for the full 50 minutes?

  100. Tom Dooly on August 5, 2019 at 7:30 pm

    I used the white label pour-n-go. The head gasket test AOK, BUT when I first start to drive after engine cools, the car skip and sputters very bad for the first half mile, then OK. Someone told me that the BlueDevil will cause that, and I need to flush the radiator and add new coolant!! Is this true???

    • BlueDevil Pro on August 6, 2019 at 8:41 am

      Tom-

      Skipping and sputtering would be symptoms of a possible coolant leak, potentially the reason someone would be using BlueDevil to try and treat. If you were getting combustion/exhaust gases pumping back into the cooling system, it would usually force water/coolant to get back into the cylinders and cause a misfire or a rough idle. Try checking your spark plugs. If any look fouled out/deteriorated, you would want to replace them.

      Thank you!

    Have a 96 Cadillac fleetwood with a 5.7L lt1 v8 motor and a closed loop system, just did a coolant flush, would I be ok putting yellow label in with fresh coolant or do i need water? And can I put it straight into the water pump? Will burping the air out while doing the idling step cause problems?

    • BlueDevil Pro on April 13, 2020 at 8:28 am

      Brennan-

      Thank you for asking about your Cadillac Fleetwood. As long as the cooling system has been flushed, you should be fine in using the product with coolant. If your vehicle only has a reservoir/overflow rather than a radiator cap, instead of pouring BlueDevil through the reservoir/overflow, with the car off and engine cold you should disconnect the top radiator hose and add the product there; do not pour it into the reservoir. It may be added into the hose or the opening on the radiator. Once BlueDevil has been added, reconnect the hose and start the idle from that point.
      The product is attracted to air flow, so you don’t want to add any coolant or bleed the system during that 50 minute idle. Feel free to contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 with any other questions.

    I have a 3 cyl 201 cu. In. Ford diesel tractor which has a leak somewhere. I have replaced the head gasket and visually inspected the head and block surfaces and reassembled paying attention to torque and torque sequence and the tractor still loses coolant – which is very evident in the valve cover as a jelly like substance. Would you expect your product to work for me, and which product would you recommend? Thanks for any help you can give.

    • BlueDevil Pro on December 7, 2020 at 9:29 am

      Ted-

      Thank you for asking about your Ford Diesel Tractor. Based on your description, we’d recommend using the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer for your coolant leak. It doesn’t seem that you are losing coolant too quickly, which would make you a good candidate for the product.

    • BlueDevil Pro on December 21, 2020 at 8:35 am

      Jocelyne-

      You would be removing the thermostat and leaving it out for the duration of the process. Once the 50 minute idle is complete, and the vehicle is allowed ample time to cool down, you would be able to put the thermostat back in place.

      Thank you for asking about your Ford Explorer. The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer is only intended for water/coolant leaks. Unfortunately, the product would not be able to seal oil leaking from the head gasket. A hard part repair may be your best option.

  108. Mike Tyson on January 1, 2021 at 11:41 pm

    If I can’t find the spark plug thats causing back pressure in the system can I just leave the radiator cap off . I wasted a whole bottle because of a back pressure problem , all liquid backs up the resovoir boils out and over and collapses the hoses on both sides (98 chevy lumina 3.1).

    • BlueDevil Pro on January 4, 2021 at 12:55 pm

      Mike-

      Thank you for asking about your Chevy Lumina. If you are unable to identify the cylinder that is getting the leak by looking at the spark plugs or if multiple cylinders seem to be getting a leak, we recommend having a compression test performed and removing the spark plug from the cylinder with the lowest compression reading. Leaving the radiator cap off when using the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer would not be an option.

    I have a 2004 nissan titan 4×4 le 5.6 liter and i have a gasket leak i have been running pure water in my cooling system for about a couple months now my truck still runs great it just has a head gasket leak and over heats i wNt to know how much blue devil am i supposed to use for my v8 5.6 and if i still need to flush it since ive been running water and do i also need to take out my thermostat? Thanks

    • BlueDevil Pro on January 8, 2021 at 3:21 pm

      Jecador-

      Thank you for asking about your Nissan Titan. You may use either of the Head Gasket Sealers that we manufacture. The “Pour N Go” (16 oz./white label) is a less concentrated formula that does not require the removal of the thermostat or a flush of the cooling system prior to use. Whereas the “Mechanic Approved” (32 oz./yellow label) requires both the removal of thermostat and a flush before applying the product; the 32 ounce is the more concentrated formula. The product would not adversely react with antifreeze. You are performing a flush of the cooling system to ensure that it is free of any jellied antifreeze, rust or debris that would potentially impede/restrict flow.
      The product with the yellow label will give you best overall results as long as you can remove the thermostat and flush the system prior to use. Keep in mind that based on your cooling capacity you will be adding 16 ounces of BlueDevil either way.

      Thank you!

    I have a 2010 ford fiesta, I’m suspecting a blown head gasket issue it. Changed up the belts, thermostat and water pump, expansion tank, the cap, and some few hoses. After putting everything together, filled it up with coolant and I noticed it boiling over in the expansion tank, and can smell car getting really hot. I thought maybe I didn’t bleed it well enough. Got it up again to bleed again, drove a little and the car went into limp mode, got back home, and could hear it is misfiring, checked expansion tank and it still boiling.

    Googled a bit and Blue Devil popped up with fairly positive reviews, and lucky me it is available here in South Africa.
    Can I use this stuff on this newer car? Will it work well just until I can raise funds to have the gaskets replaced?

      You would only want to let the vehicle idle during that 50 minutes with the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer. Driving the vehicle would put extra compression in the cooling system and would limit the effectiveness of the product. A free-flowing system is what would give the product the best chance of being successful.

    • BlueDevil Pro on September 12, 2022 at 9:36 am

      Jesse-

      Thank you for asking about your Honda Pilot. The best way to get around the thermostat housing is by taking the thermostat and modifying it so that the middle piece does not close; you may remove this piece or gut the middle of the thermostat. By doing so you will create a free flow and still be able to have the full housing installed. The thermostat should remain “open” while BlueDevil circulates through the system. Once the BlueDevil procedure is complete you will need to replace the thermostat.

      Thank you!

    • BlueDevil Pro on September 23, 2022 at 9:04 am

      Jeff-

      Thank you for asking about your Buick LeSabre. The BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer is intended for leaks that are seeping or lightly dripping. If you are losing antifreeze too quickly, you would lose the product just as quickly and wouldn’t really be able to keep the product in the system long enough to get the benefit of using it. Replacing the intake manifold may be your best option.

    I have a 2002 Honda Civic. I’m told my head gasket is blown. A family member suggested to use your product. I asked the mechanic if it would work on my car. He said if the leak was coming from the inside out it would work, but my leak is from the outside in and a sealant will not work. This doesn’t make sense to me at all. It would seem that a leak is a leak and it doesn’t matter which way it’s going. Is he right?

    Hello,

    I have a 2009 Pontiac Vibe 1.8l
    I recently discovered I am getting exhaust in my coolant causing my reservoir to overflow after about 40 minutes of driving. I had a shop diagnose it and I have a small leak in my radiator as well as a head gasket leak. I’m planning on getting a new radiator and using blue devil.

    Would you suggest installing the new radiator, flushing it, and then adding the coolant and blue devil? Or would you suggest flushing the old radiator, using the blue devil, and then install the new radiator.

    Thank you for the help.

      Theo-

      Thank you for asking about your Pontiac Vibe. Based on your description, it would be best to replace the radiator prior to applying the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer. You would want all of the other components in the cooling system functioning properly to give the product the best chance at being successful.

      Thank you!

    I used product as intended. I used half the bottle for my vehicle. Would be any benefit to drain the fluid and repeat the process with the other half of the product I have? Would it “double layer” the areas and be stronger?

      Cody-

      The product should not be used as a preventative measure/maintenance. If the leak has sealed, there would be no need to use the second half of the bottle.

      Thank you!

      You would use about 8-10 oz. of the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer for your Honda Civic. Feel free to contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 with any other questions.

    I have an 88 Chevy Cheyenne K1500 with milky oil and I bought the 32oz bottle of Blue Devil, a new thermostat, Blue Devil radiator flush, a new oil filter, and oil for an oil change and I was wondering if I should use the Blue Devil first and then change the oil or do it before?

    • BlueDevil Pro on November 7, 2023 at 10:30 am

      William-

      If you water/coolant is mixing in with the engine oil, we recommend changing the oil before and after the BlueDevil procedure. Feel free to contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 with any other questions.

      Thank you!

    I have a 2011 Nissan Altima and I use the blue devil and let my car ran for the 50min. Then I drove it for a couple hours. Once I got home and turned it off it wouldn’t crank anymore. I need answers.

    • BlueDevil Pro on November 30, 2023 at 8:43 am

      Demetris-

      Thank you for asking about your Nissan Altima. Did you allow the engine to completely cool before driving it? What are the symptoms the vehicle was having? Please contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 so that we can get a little better understanding of the vehicle’s condition and be able to make any appropriate recommendations.

      Thank you!

    What is the minimum(in ml) that I have to use of the BD Head Gasket Sealer when applying to a car with Coolant Symtem Capacity of 6.5L

    • BlueDevil Pro on February 19, 2024 at 8:45 am

      Rico-

      For a 6.5L cooling system capacity, you would be fine to use about 8-10 oz. of the BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer.

      Thank you!

    Can the Blue Devil Pour & Go work on Hemi engines. I have a 2012 Dodge Durango Hemi and I was told that the head gaskets were warped

    • BlueDevil Pro on August 14, 2024 at 9:03 am

      Kevin-

      You would be able to use the BlueDevil Pour-N-Go Head Gasket Sealer in you Dodge Durango Hemi, however, you would need more of the product depending on the size of the cooling system. One bottle would treat up to a 3 gallon capacity. Feel free to contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 with any questions.

      Thank you!

    Hi I used the 32oz product and flushed the coolant and also used your radiator flush beforehand. I was wondering because it said you do not need to flush it after you add the head gasket sealant but I did flush it after 90 minutes of idling I let the car cool off then added the thermostat back and then I flushed it Again will it still work even though I flushed it after this process even though it says I don’t need to flush it

    • BlueDevil Pro on October 21, 2024 at 10:02 am

      Finn-

      Yes, the product still would have been able to seal even if you flushed the system after the 50 minute idle and subsequent cool down. The product only goes through one heat cycle, so you weren’t getting any benefit by leaving it in. Feel free to contact our technical support line at 888-863-0426 if you run into any questions.

      Thank you!
