Default Go ahead and laugh but it worked for me...

Bought a small 10 oz. container of "Bars Leaks Radiator Stop Leak" and threw it in the expansion tank and took the Cobra out for a nice, long, hot run. Came back home and let it heat sink in the garage for a few minutes. Looked under the car and the small leak that used to dribble out on the ground was gone! Couldn't believe it so the next day I wiped down the front corner of the motor and oil pan area, removing all of the previous coolant drips and took it out for another long, hot run in our recent 100 degree weather in SoCal. Came back home, let her heat sink for 15 minutes and looked under the car and all around the lower right front corner of the motor and guess what? LEAK BEGONE!!!!

I would have swore that "Stop Leak" wouldn't stop a damn thing but it sure solved my problem once and for all! The wonders of modern science?
