I have been more than amused by all the steps taken and expense incurred
to fix minor radiator leaks.

I found a small tin of black pepper always worked for me. This will
surely evoke some arrows (he says as he ducks his head)

GET-ME-HOME-FIXES

The whole idea of a GMC is that you are comfortable with driving the GMC and
coming home without a major problem.

If you think that you can drive your GMC to Alaska or ever the town of
"Remote, Or." with a leaking radiator, or head gasket ; with
"leak-stop"coursing through it's water-jacket, you are asking for failure.

Leak stop, or "pepper" might get you home, but it is not a reliable , long
term, fix....,

just fix the problems when you find them, shortcuts will let you down.
