D60 coolant leak followup 2000 lxi
If the leak is accessible with your hands, I'd consider cleaning the
area well with sandpaper, wiping off with acetone and putting some
epoxy putty on it until you can get it fixed. You'll need to do it
when the engine is cold and there is not much pressure on the system.
I've had epoxy putty hold for years in some instances. My house has
hot water radiator for heat and I repaired two cracked radiators 16
yrs ago with epoxy putty. They are still holding today.
This probably wouldn't work if it is a leaking gasket.
