Bars Stop Leak, 10 oz bottle. Make sure your cooling system is clean before you add, You might change the antifreeze and add SCA when you do this job. I've got better than 200,000 miles on Bars.
ya thats what they said can it be used in oil to stop leaks or will it stop oilleaks in the coolant?
i saw apost on it i didnt pay much attention to it

Oozing a slight amount of oil at the rear of the heads is a common problem with these (and many other diesels) engines. The proper fix has always been to re-torque the cylinder heads. Bars Leak isn't going to have any effect on this particular type leak.

Only if you have a desire to ruin your engine. Many guys, including myself won't use it in their cooling system either, who knows how it affects a SCA additive?

My 1993 IDI may have the same issue.
Do you know the procedure, or the torque specs?
Is a .pdf file available for the 7.3L IDI Navistar?
