This stuff just saved my bacon in Death Valley recently. Pulled into
Teakettle Junction and noticed a line of drips behind the Syncro.
Looked under my van and my heater hoses has dropped down to where one
was touching the axle. It wore a small hole through one and I fixed it
with silicone tape (thanks, Paul!). Drove 500 miles home with that
repair and a blown PS rack. Good times!
