Dad and Grand-Dad ran a garage for over 50 years, and they were filled with disdain for most "mechanic-in-a-can" products, as Grand-Dad called 'em. They used the original "pelletized" Bar's Leaks product in cooling systems on engine overhauls, much like the OEM manufacturers {GM, Ford, etc.] used the large cooling-system "tablets" in theirs...but other than the occasional use of Hastings' "Casite" to free up sticking valves, they stayed away from what they called "snake-oil" additives.

But then, Grand-Dad was a welder, and knew what was required to properly fix a cracked block or head, if it was repairable. If you've got a leaking head gasket, you'll be better off in the long run to fix it once, and fix it right.

Just my opinion...your mileage may vary, objects in mirror may be closer than they appear, void where prohibited, and alcohol may intensify any side effects.
