So I have a 1990 jeep cherokee and its overheating. Mechanic said its the head gasket (ugh, a very expensive fix) but I did some research and found BlueDevil Head Gasket Sealer. 95% positive reviews so I am willing to try it. But my jeep is the last year they had the closed cooling system. So no radiator cap and the blue devil needs to be poured in to the radiator cap. It said if no radiator cap put into the top radiator hose. I need help with which hose that actually is and how to remove it, put the stuff in and put it back together and hope this stuff works.
anyone willing to help?

Head gaskets are cheap, it’s the mechanic that’s expensive. Do you have the 4.0 engine?

Snake oil that’s only a temporary fix most of the time it settles in radiator or the heater core and causes restrictions

I'm sure Sam has money for a new car. But she's not the one that needs one.

I don't, actually. Rumor of my success are greatly exaggerated. I just have a nice car now because I HAD good credit and got a great deal.
