Kevin et al,
        I used the Moroso a couple months ago in my slightly leaking (head
gaskets) '90 syncro-westie. I followed the directions on the bottle, which
can be a bit confusing as to the timing of the treatment. For street use I
seem to recall that they recommend driving around for a day or so and then
draining and allowing it to set up. There was a fair amount of flushing and
draining as Vince suggested, but it seems to have worked, we'll see for how
long.
