- Stops All engine oil leaks, Proof with 2 test and review of Bars rear main seal repair. Bars leaks claims to stop all oil leaks with this product.
The first test with before and after results showing Bars stop leak added to a car engine that has a oil leak on the timing cover. Also we show the amount of Motor oil that has leaked before using Bars and after.
Next we use crankshaft seal 1 for each test using bars oil stop leak and not using Bars. The seals are heated up to see if they harden which can cause oil loss. I will use Mobil1 in 1 seal and the other Mobil1 and Bars.
These test and information given is for entertainment purposes and before performing anything you see in the video or hear in the video you should speak to a professional but also speak with the manufacturer of the vehicle or products used.
Let us know what you want to see next on Nates interactive auto.

Tell us your experience with Bars stop leak, it really helps others that need to know. Taking time from your day to help someone really shows kindness.
Ive got an 08 Rav 4, you think this will help with the leaking caused by the poor piston assembly? I’ve had it since April and about every 700-1000 miles I’m getting the oil light flashing, no outside leaks and can’t tell that it’s leaking from the exhaust.
@@grind-hardtrashbaggang7083 no
@@grind-hardtrashbaggang7083 It's most likely your oil sensor dude I've done quite a few to people's and friends cars/trucks and with the same symptoms as you said and no flashing oil light any more, easy fix as well.
@@WoLFSkYBLuE69 does it send a code? I’m not a mechanic or anything but I do my own work as much as possible. If it does send one I’ll go have it fixed. Otherwise I’m staring down buying a new motor lol
Never mind I’m tripping because it is actually eating oil fast, when the light comes on there’s usually no oil on the dipstick at all, it’s to the point I’m only changing the filter every 3 “changes”
If it were the piston rings then the oil would burn and be noticed from the exhaust. I was going to ask if you checked the oil level on the dipstick and if its really low oil level as you said then you need to see if the light will go off after you fill it. As for burning oil check the pcv valve to make sure it's working properly because this could be the cause. Myself I check the pcv and clean it periodically. Also if you need the engine to last longer then you may need to clean the spark plugs often depending on how much you drive with cleaner and a old toothbrush would do well. Your exhaust valves will start to have a great deal of carbon buildup over time if burning a good deal of oil.
I had a rear main seal leak once, pardon my description, but it was pissing oil…used this product and it went from a serious leak to barely a sweat of oil. For me it gets a 👍

@@DoctorRickSanchez true that old man

hell yeah
Yeah Nathan.. I remember maybe 50-60 years ago I've used Barrs Leak in my Radiator..(it worked as well as lubed the water pump) Not exactly the same but you would think they would have improved their name somewhat in the last half century. Thanks Nathan.. Cheers 🥂
A good test would be to see if the seal that hardened in the cofee pot can be restored to soft if bathed in the stop leak fluid.
i have used this stuff for 60 years also radiator sealer this stuff works just takes time!!! will not fix water pumps shafts spins removes sealer use low pressure radiator if you sealed antifreeze terrific video thank you!!!!!
Nicely done video. Earned a subscriber.
Sounded like I was in virtual reality. Good test
Good video thankyou. 👍
On old Chevy small block V8s where even new rear 2 piece seals leak this works pretty well!
Might have to try this, my 2012 Honda is daily driven and no leaks but I using HM Motor Oil
First of all with it being thicker changes the oil viscosity. I can see where that can slow the leak down. I like to see what the viscosity of that bars stop leak is.
It does work. I’m using this to buy time until it’s not 100° outside and I can get this fixed myself. I don’t want to be repairing an oil pan leak when is 98° outside
cant speak for the engine stop leak...but I used the Bar's for power steering and it fixed my SCREAMING steering pump issue :) best $11.00 spent on additives so far.
Yeah I used the oil one for my power steering and it completely stopped it
Just put this in my 350 in my corvette after the rear main started dumping oil pretty good. Ran it yesterday through the day and didn’t leave more than a dime sized drop after the whole day
I’m thinking about trying this in my vette, mines leaking somewhere on the rear of the motor and I’m afraid it’s the rear main even though I had it replaced like a year ago. It’s not leaking horribly but getting on the exhaust. How did it end up working for you?
Since it changes viscosity can you use it on VVT engines? Those are supposed to be sensitive to proper viscosity
I tried this one and it didn't help so I used bars valve seal professional strength and notice better results
Isn't this the same car you did the stop leak review/snake oil with the valve cover leak 1 year ago?
are you in Kentucky?
My mechanic told me my real main seal in my vortec 5.3 liter Tahoe (300k + miles) is leaking. When I got under it to change the oil a leak was evident. I replaced one of the 6 quarts of oil with 2 containers of Bars rear main seal stop leak. We'll see what happens. It's been about two weeks now and the leak has stopped, well see how long it last.
How is it now?
I'm interested in hearing if it worked out. I have a similar issue with my 08 silverado.
Did it work??
Its not my time to change oil but can i add this to my engine?
Long story short........My 2012 Chevy sonic w 138,500 miles started leaking just under from where I put my oil filter. It would slowly drip down to my exhaust and stink and smoke up badly. After trying Bars stop oil and seal leak with my oil change, I can say I noticed a 50 % less burn after a week or so. After about a month I forgot I had even had a leak. I have since changed my oil again and added another bottle. NO MORE OIL BURNING ISSUES FOR ME
I also have the same car same issue bro... How much did you poured ?
almost the whole bottle the first oil change.......then about half after that
..@@skfazilahmed6189
I used almost the whole bottle. at least 3/4 I used Bars Oil seal. Engine oil burning and seal repair. This stuff really works. Good Luck@@skfazilahmed6189
I have never had much success with any type of stop leak. Power steering leaks for me have become worse. Cooling systems have become clogged. With modern engines with variable valve timing, they usually require a 0W something oil. Personally, I would not add anything thicker than the recommended weight oil. You could easily rob Peter to pay Paul. It would be much cheaper to slide a drip pan under the car and add oil when necessary than to replace the cam phasers/actuators or whatever the manufacturer calls them. On top of that, if the product doesn’t completely stop the leak, you still have a spot on your driveway so what’s the point? Do you actually know anyone who has collected any money for damages from a company that makes this type of product? I may be somewhat of a cynic, but I am leery of the long term effects. Sometimes the cure can be worse than the disease. I appreciate you, Nate! I’m just not a fan of additives, particularly stop leak products.

@@dieselburner4461 😂
@@dieselburner4461 I never had luck with radiator stop leak either (ended up having to replace the radiator), and I'm very wary about putting something in my oil that could potentially make things permanently worse. You are not helping. The fact that you have no answer for anything he said besides insults means you don't know anything about it, and detailed comments with issues with the product can't get detailed answers with tips or solutions to avoid destroying your engine with these products. That is very telling.
What if you left the paper under the car even longer? Maybe a bigger oil puddle?
I used this and about 3 week later my oil light comes on, I went to auto zone, got some more of the product and oil. I poured about a quart in pulled the dip stick and it was gummed up with the stuff on it, I thought it baked the oil on the dip stick, I cleaned it off and it felt like rubber. I just hope it doesn’t destroy my engine, going to pop the valve cover off and see if it’s still pumping.
Damn so what happened sounds serious?
😮
Yea...so What HAPPENED ! ! ? ? or are you just working for a competitor ??
What happend mfr
It destroyed the engine
I have used Blue devil oil leak. I have used it on cars that have began sweating but not leaking. Works everytime and sweating pretty much goes away by next oil change
Used BD and did not work for me
@@LifeInElSalvador 😮
Bardahl,liqui moly,gold eagle,atomex .which one that you recomend sir?is it really stop the problem or i should just change the gasket?thank you
Liqui Moly works good on old Mercedes
Hello, my Pt cruiser doesn’t leave oil on the floor but it goes in combustion and makes blue smoke. Elastic bands problem. Do you think the product could help? Thank you.
Headgasket, likely.
Would you use this for seal maintenance?
Yes, it is an oil additive, so it is designed for seal maintenance.
Did you apply heat to the coffee pots when conducting your test?
lol Said the project farmer
❤ oh yes
Hi have you used atp205???
Hope you don’t mind me answering…atp 205 works very well too!
@@JimBic72 no prob .. ive used it too with succes ....
How long after an oil change can I use the product ?
Anytime between oil changes from what the instructions say. I would use it now and again after your next oil change.
I just put a bottle in my old 1999 f150. I’ll get back to you.
i used this on my 81 kawasaki kz 305 because i was getting oil on spark plug threads. after about 30 miles of driving it was gone. i use it for every oil change now
I'm glad I saw your comments seeing as it all seems to be car dominated... Please answer is it important to put the whole bottle in the motorcycle engine oil and what's the proportion of mix between oil and this stuff? Or is it ok to put the whole bottle added in as it is
@@sueandjaygreen4920 No, you don't want to use the entire bottle. i use 8 ounces ( half thew bottle) for my bike
Just pour it and left it off ? So it just sat there and didn’t move around ? Lmao no wonder it didn’t work. This stuff works very well.
Yeah I've used this in my truck that had a rear seal leak.... you have to put it in and drive it around for a good hour or so lol.
Yeah sure mate .. wink wink 😂
Stop leak does not work good (or even not at all) with hyper modern rubber seals, the brown and blue ones are Viton or Neoprene seals...they are resistent. Stop seal works only with BUNA (synthetical black rubber seals = NBR) On vintage cars with rubber gaskets most stop leak additives work pretty well.
So it’ll work on my 1993 f250 with the original motor and assuming rear main seal. 👌🏻
I'd rather topping up the oil from time to time than using this stop-leak thingy at each oil drain interval.
You're not supposed to have to use it everytime. Maybe every few oil changes. The refreshed seal shouldn't immediately start leaking the same after the next oil changes.
NOTICE: He placed the new clean paper under the car and then drove off ???.....Vodoo camera work.
It would probably starve the lubrication to your camshaft and destroy your engine Just let it link on the driveway and use cardboard
This guys accent cracks me up. I didn’t know people actually speak like that . I thought Towmater was doing the voiceover 😂😂
RISLONE.
All those types of additives do is clog and plug things up imo.....fix leaks the correct way and replace gaskets and seals.
This is for people who can't. I think that would be pretty obvious captain. 🤣
Not really. The radiator stop leaks do that, by collecting in the spot where the coolant is leaking out and forming a plug. But the oil stop leaks actually chemically soften and swell the seals so they seal again. The oil products don't "clog" or "plug" things. And no, I don't work for any seal company or any repair company, nor do I know this guy. But I have used bar's products to stop a leaking head gasket, and worked perfectly in less than an hour. Coolant stopped getting in the oil, stopped blowing antifreeze vapor out the tailpipe, and ran the engine another 50,000 miles (and sold the truck), still not leaking or showing any ill effects.
@@cowsongs Ok
Glad you're a millionaire. My 250k truck has an issue every other week, so something like this for $20 that prevents me from dumping $1000 a month into the bitch while i try to save up for a new truck (damn near impossible, but hey, we're trying) is a lifesaver sometimes.
@@colecole3352 Yeah, you're right....just for smart people.
