I would NOT do.  Before you plug up the leak with one kind of goo or
another, locaate exactly where the leak is.  If a water pump or head gasket
or hose, fix or get them fixed.  Goo, whether good goo or not, is only a
band-aid, and will leave you scrod on the side of the road in (I guarantee)
a place less convenient than where you are now.

Plan as many of life's little disasters as you can.

  Hmm. Didn't think of that. Will definitely do.

Thanks for the tip.
