Some people swear by magical fixes in a can and some people swear at them. The former camp always says "Obviously you did something wrong!" when the gunk gums up everything.

The highest-rated head gasket sealant is rated 4.3 stars on Amazon.

I think that I would want something rated a little better than that to use on an engine.

Old snowblower tires?

Go ahead!

I tried it on Mom's wheelbarrow tire and it didn't do anything, but we already had the can, so we weren't out anything. I bought a new tubeless tire from Home Depot.

It was half off!

I don't think that Harbor Freight had the right size. I went there first.

Fix-a-Flat may work. Maybe not.

I bet that Great Stuff would do the trick, but I need to ask can you make it a solid rubber tire?

Also, it sounds like two-stroke engine, carburetors, and all of that are more trouble than it is worth. Just swap in a Metro engine!
