I remember when the radiator on my impreza got a pin hole leak & my old man told me to stick a raw egg in the header tank because thats what they used to do 'back in the day' to plug radiators.

no fucking thanks

I duck taped my front arch on the corsa when the pissy clips broke. Held it on for a good couple of months until I could be bothered looking at it

so when your head gasket goes between cylinder 4 and atmosphere, how does this help? or between 2 cylinders? or between an oilway and a cylinder?

Useful, and worth the risk if the car is worth less than a head gasket repair. Other than that, I wouldn't touch the stuff!
