Re: [AMC-list] Leak from timing chain cover



Just remember
A little is good
A lot is bad. 
Don't keep adding tabs if the leak don't stop. 
We actually had people plug heater cores! They were sure one more tab or tube would fix their leak!  

I remember seeing that or a similar bulletin from GM. It will indeed work on a lot of minor seepage leaks !

Before tearing things apart you might want to try just adding stop leak.
Bars Leak makes stop leak "tabs" that I install behind the freeze plugs of
every motor I build.

While I was working as the engine tech at a GM dealer years ago they sent
out a bulletin that advised adding a couple of "GM stop leak tabs" ANY time
there was any kind of cooling system repair. GM adds it at the factory.

I have seen this stuff stop seepage from water pump seals for YEARS!!

CAN'T hurt,,,, can only HELP. Cheap fix if it works.

But HEY,,, that's just ME!!
