Acura Legend Clogging Problem
I had leak in my Acura legend radiator and I put stop leak in that. It clogged my water pump and may be other pipes also. I got new radiator, thermostat and water pump last week and paid $800 for that. I saw stop leak blocked my water pump and it was not working. Even after pump change Problem is still the same. My mechanic told me stop leak has clogged other water/coolent circulations also and may be in the engine. So please suggest me any other way to remove clogging as engine repair will cost me more than $1000.
Thanks for help in advance... |

Have a radiator shop use a power flush on it. Will be the only way to get that stuff out of the engine and cooling system.

A radiator stop leak, will only temporary stop the radiator from leaking, but most of the time it will also case more problems, you could find a radiator for $100.
