How do I add Bar's Leak to my radiator?

Question:
My car is cold, I have opened the radiator cap, and I see the coolant. When I pour the Bar's leak in, though, it just overflows... it doesn't go in. What am I doing wrong?

If you can see the coolant when you remove the cap, maybe it doesn't need the Bar's Leaks in the first place. But ok, if it does, then you need syphon a little coolant out and then add the B L. Btw, Bar;s Leaks is only a temporary fix for cooling systems, and can cause water pump damage if left in there too long.

Why put it in in the first place, you're still going to have to fix the leak. That stuff will plug everything up and cause you a bigger expense in the long run.
