So a couple weeks ago i found out i had a radiator leak, i work at pennzoil and my boss is a mechanic. He recommended i get this ceramic cooling system seal from the local auto parts shop, and follow the directions, they will be pretty specific. So i did, I drained the rad, put this stuff in, filled it up with water, ran it for 2 days, drained it, let it sit overnight (i just let it sit for 8 hours while i worked) and then i filled it back up with coolant.
On my way home she started to overheat, so i took it back to the shop. When i took off the rad cap it practically exploded in steam/coolant, and what do i find? Big chunks of ceramic crap in my radiator. So, this keeps happening, more chunks, and more overheating. We flushed the system once, and are going to do it again, until i get it all out, i'm just afraid it might break my water pump or thermostat. If I cant fix it I'm going with my boss back to the store and we're going after that company who made it. Any ideas of how to fix this, these chunks of ceramic are everywhere?
cheers
