I have a 1988 Big Cam IV 400 cummins with a minor coolant leak seaping from between the block and heads on a few cylinders. The leak is pretty minimal, some days I don't see anything other days I can see it slightly puddle on the deck of the block.
I would like to try one of those sealers such as Dike-Conklin since I see this seep seems to be a common 855 Cummins problem and this is the bandaid fix as long as no coolant is entering the oil.
My problem is I have an aftermarket coolant filter and I can't permanently bypass it because I am still running the green coolant. I have read that the sealer can't be ran through a coolant filter.
Can I flush my coolant, refill with green coolant, add the SCA additives (along with the stop leak) and bypass my filter?
Does anybody know what the pH/SCA levels of the coolant is supposed to be?
