I have a jar of Barr's stop leak in our GMC. I put the entire contents in the time I used it. It stopped a fairly large leak. Got me home. As to the Trans X. Again the entire contents. I've seen Trans X get 4 GMC's home. With one other GMC. Didn't help. $6, and a few hours of messing with it. Cheep way to maybe get back home. I've never seen it work in under an hour. One took a day. Also seen it work for years after installing. I agree with Ken Henderson. Most of these kind of products are just snake oil. Bob Dunahugh

A stop leak is something that should be carried in all our GMC's. Saved me once with a heater core leak. Replaced the core when we got home.

If you yourself paid for a trans rebuild. Thus know the true history. Fine. But if that's not the case. Or the PO told you a trans rebuild was done. I'd have a can of Trans X in my GMC. The trans that we are using now was from our burned GMC. It now has about 31000 miles on it. I still have a can with me anyway. $6 may beat a chance of a hook. Bob Dunahugh

Sounds like your tranny is at the end of it's rope. I'm not big on liquid mechanics. But some Trans X from Auto Zone just might get you home before it's totally dead. Mike Kelly can tell you about this idea. Bob Dunahugh
