Hi, this isn't about a tractor but thought there might be someone who knows something about an old remedy.

Recently our car started just pouring antifreeze out on the ground. It was not the radiator or hoses. We thought it was a freeze plug. We had this towed to the garage and are told we have a cracked engine block.

My father told me of something my grandfather used to use but we are not sure exactly what it is or how to use it. It is called "Egg shell preserver" or "water glass." Is there anyone out here that has heard of anything like this?

As for your question. There is still available liquid glass. You can obtain it from your pharmacy. Don't put any of it in your radiator though. Best take Marty's advice.
