Leaking Head Gasket
Ok, this is actually for my girlfriends '92 Accord and not my EVO. Sorry if this doesn't belong here.
Anyways, she has a leaking head gasket. Since it's not worth replacing the head gasket cause her car isn't worth more than $1000, is there anyway to internally or externally seal up the gasket leak? (atleast temporarily till she gets a new car in a year or two) I know there's Permatex High-Temp Form-A-Gasket Sealant, but will this do the job? Is there anything else that would work? Thanks for the help!

Leaking/blown HG...new car in a year or two? Did I read this right? I'm assuming this a stock F-series Sohc motor in there; they're so easy to work on it'd take just an afternoon to do one.

well there are a bunch of other issues with the car which is why she's going to be getting a new car. it has >200,000 miles on it and wasn't maintained very well. I'm just looking for a temporary fix. Also, since she lives pretty far away and I'm really busy with school, so i don't have the time to change it myself. But i'll consider it.
Thanks for the help everyone!
