bars stop leak for cooling systems
most of the manufacturers use stop leak as this stuff goes down the assembly line. I cant remember which company, but one of them sells millions of those horse pill sized stop leak tables to ford, dodge, chevy etc each year... well at least they used when I checked this information out in the late 90's.
I know of more than one very expensive race engine builders, Jaguar BMW nissan etc ... the race engines are delivered with a bottle of bars stop leak... the engines have no warrany at all if the stuff is not used.....
Chrysler has a thing in the factory service manual... when you do a coolant flush at 120,000 miles you are supposed to put three stop leak tablets in the radiator during the refill process.
again I did the search into this stuff in the late 1990's after I saw a race v-12 Jag engine come off the truck and there was a bottle of stop leak wired onto the engine with instructions from the engine builder
