Default head gasket

well after all the issues with cat heating up, i looked under the car for some reason and noticed a leak, i thought it might be a rear main seal as it was leaking in the same area. waited a couple more days and noticed that it was coolant leaking. so now im going to put some Blue Devil head gasket leak repair in it saturday.. hopefully that will work..

have you tried pressure testing the cooling system to see if you can locate the leak ?? Personally I rather diagnose where the leak is at and fix it than add head gasket repair leak ,

Default head gasket

if i pressure test it, then it still needs fixed.. if the head gasket repair stuff dont work then i might pay the price to get it fixed by a honda mechanic.. if i pay 1500 to fix it then it should last another 10 years.

the fix could be a hose leaking it's not going to be anywhere 1500 dollars , why do you think its going to cost so much money to fix without properly diagnosing the issue.
Yo, my man your car your money do as you please ,,Again my advise pressure test, locate the leak and fix it ,
