head gasket
 
has anyone used any of the products that are suppose to seal up a blown head gasket? i have a 97 f250 with a 460 engine and need to get it home,about 400 miles.

something worked
 
i used a bunch of different stuff so im not sure which did the trick but something did, made it home with no troubles. the first i tried was blueish liquid that had no particles in it (dont remember the name). it at first didnt seem to stop but i then added aluma seal to it and it seemed to help. i then added bars leak liquid copper and some more alumaseal and that seem to really do the trick. changed the oil 4 times using sea foam water removal in the crankcase and still dont have any water in the oil after 11 hours driving it at 60mph. all in all about $150 - 200 worth of stuff to get it to work.
