I do not care what you do on the side, I have nearly a 30 year
background in electrical and mechnical engineering and I know various
materials well and there limitations from a design point of veiw.
Anyone that suggests that they use stop leak in new engines is really
kinda clueless on this matter and should seek another less challanging
field. While it is true that some surface can be tuff to seal they
call all be overcome with the use proper materails, sealent and
assembly procedures.

Obviously no automotive background or training in the past 15 years...

LOL They have been using stop leaks in engines for years! In fact Saturn
had been using ginger root since they started! More and more
manufacturers have been looking for ways to prolong inevitable leaks.
You seem to think no engine ever leaks if its "designed correctly"...
lol. Get yourself a few friends that are ASE techs. You might be able to
keep up on current automotive technology... lol clueless.

Not one car ships with it and while some shady dealer may use it it is
not a cure and it reduces oil lubrication properties too so it is
silly to use. Your handle "blah blah" says it all about some of your
words of wisedom.
