Argh! Oil leak

[cudabob496]

gets stolen? that's a good sign!!!

Label should say, "So good, it's regularly stolen right off the shelf"

I put about 1/2 a bottle of the AT-205 in along with Lucas PS fluid. Drove about 10 miles on curvey back roads to work the steering.
Only one drop of fluid dropped to the cardboard on the floor.!
Slight seepage along the bottom was noted this morning but after 16 hours fluid level is still good !
May add additional AT-205.
Putting more mies on may stop the slight seepage .

Thank you @cudabob496 for the info.

I think you have to ratio it, so that you add one bottle
per 6 quarts of oil, fluid, etc.

How many drops would you have seen before you added it?

[73440]

It would have emptied completely overnight.
Still no leaks, very very slight seepage, at about 24 hrs, so far so good , very satisfied.!
Have started the car a few times today while trying to resolve a non charging issue, so the fluid has been circulating.

10 days since using the AT-205 in the PS pump and NO leakage!
Will definetly try it in other places.
25 miles driven.

Interesting. I can't help but wonder though that if it plugs up small leaks, how does it not plug up passages where you want the oil to go.

[73440]

I think what it is supposed to be doing is swelling or rejuvenate any seals to stop the leak.
I may take an old seal and submerge it in some of this product and see what it does to it.

How did yours do while down in Florida? Lose much oil?

[blown motor]

No it didn't @Brads70 . I started it here and let it run a couple minutes before loading it. I unloaded it three times down there and there were no oil spots on the trailer floor. I got home at night and unloaded it the next morning so everything was really cold. It left a puddle on the trailer floor. The day I started this thread was a cold day and I had started the car to move it in the shed. So it seams that when it's very cold something is not sealing.

Must be a rubber seal somewhere, rubber expands with heat and shrinks with cold.....

It swells seals. If its just a passage, it would have no effect on oil flow..

I just ordered my 4th bottle, for other cars I have.

LOL

This stuff also seems to be decreasing my valve cover oil seepage. It could also
be helping to minimize oil leakage past the intake manifold gaskets into the intake!
