Suprise Suprise
My wife's 98 V6 mustang is starting to go lose water from the cooling system. I had it on the lift today doing an oil change hoping it wasn't the headgaskets (which the 3.8 is notorious for going through). Well, it wasn't much better, the intake gaskets are leaking (which the 3.8's are ALSO notorious for going through). When you rev the motor, you can see water coming out of the gasket. The water pump is making noise too and the A/C has a pretty bad leak. Looks like its coming off the road for a few days to get a good going through

Stop leak shit is good if you ARE junking the car soon. If not, i wouldn't even think about putting that shit in the car.

I'd LOVE to push the car off of a cliff. But I'll be replacing the water pump while I'm doing the intake gaskets
