Getting ready to try stop leak... any suggestions? 200

Hi gang.

It's cold outside, for CA, anyway, and it's wet, so the rackin frackin heater core has become an issue. With my 240Z needing work, and my sister's "new" 744ti needing a clutch (and maybe a heater core itself), and with the yard needing tree-trimming, the ole brick takes a back seat.

At the hardware store today getting, uhhh, hardware to put my 100K and 200K badges on, I grabbed a big bottle of Bars Leak. Worth a shot for $3. Instructions basically say, make sure the coolant level is correct, the engine cold. Add 1/2 bottle for 4cyl engines and run for 15-30 minutes.

I've never used this stuff before, so if any pro's have tips, let me have'm!
