Maintenance & Troubleshooting

Areas around the head gasket
Above and below the intake manifold gasket
Valve cover access panels
Oil pan

Good Maintenance Practices

Engine sealants are able to fix engine leaks, but it is important to check on the size and nature of the leaks before use. If leaks are large and fluids are pouring out of the vehicle, more significant engine repair is likely required. Attempting to fix a major leak with engine sealant could lead to contamination of other fluid reservoirs and end up causing major damage to the vehicle.
Carefully follow the directions for engine sealant application, as improper use can also cause significant harm to the engine.
Consulting a technician is a great way to determine if the leak is too large for engine sealant and to ensure the proper application of these products.
For application of these products: Surface should be free of residual fluids such as oil and coolant, as well as detergent residuals. Joints should be closed within 20 minutes of sealant application. Final tightening should be done within one hour of sealant application and joint closure.
