AaronM Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Hi, I am getting ready to change my coolant. I went to Wal-Mart to get some Bars Leak. There were so many different kinds, so I got the kind that looked like powder. It came in a little transparent tube that is about 2-3 inched long. How many tubes of this stuff do I need. Also, where do I pour this stuff in at. The instructions say to pour it right into the coolant tube where you pour the coolant in, but for some reason, I remeber reading something else on here. Thanks for the help! -Aaron 18 Year Old Male Black 1992 STS 4.9L 90,XXX Miles Flowmaster 80 series muffler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Two tubes. On a 4.9 you can put them right in the radiator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adallak Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Aaron, take off the lower radiator hose and put three tubes of the supplement into it (as far as you can). The saddest thing in life is wasted talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHE Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 You can put it directly into the radiator on the 4.9 engine. Kevin '93 Fleetwood Brougham '05 Deville '04 Deville 2013 Silverado Z71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob D Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Hey Aaron... (still have that chip.. Anyway, two tubes is a good number. Make sure it's the Bar's GOLD powder. On the 4.9's you can put it right into the tank as your'e adding the 50/50 green coolant and distilled water. It's the N* system that you need to make sure to avoid the tank, put the Bars (or pellets) right into the bottom hose. '93 STS.. opened, dropped, wide...fast.
