  • Patent number: 10876023
    Abstract: A formulation for sealing warping or cracking head gasket and cooling system, consisting essentially of 20% to 35% by volume of water; 20% to 35% by volume of sodium silicate; 10% to 30% by volume of potassium silicate; 10% to 20% by volume of propylene glycol at pH 8-10; 5% to 10% by volume of citric acid; and 2.5% to 5% by volume of o-hydroxy phenyl triazine. The formulation also consisting of said sodium silicate and potassium silicate have a kinematic viscosity and may further include benzoates, molybdates, alkali metal borates, sodium silicates, potassium silicates, triazoles, acids, boric salts, sodium hydroxides, potassium hydroxides or lithium hydroxides.

  • Patent number: 6647622
    Abstract: A method of repairing a coolant system associated with an engine for a vehicle, including disconnecting a gooseneck connected to the engine and removing from the engine its thermostat; disconnecting a bottom radiator hose connected to the engine and flushing the engine with water; reconnecting the bottom radiator hose and reconnecting the gooseneck; refilling the engine's radiator with an antifreeze solution; opening a drain valve on the radiator and allowing a predetermined amount of coolant to drain out of the engine corresponding to a volume of a treatment composition to be added, starting the engine when the engine is cold, and turning on the engine's heater; adding the composition to the radiator of the engine while the engine is cold and idling; running the engine until the composition causes leakage and/or vapor in the engine's exhaust stream is substantially stopped; and stopping the engine and allowing the engine to cool.
