K-Seal
So far no more leaking! and all seems well! engine running pretty smooth ( I still have small exhaust leak can smell exhaust a little if windows rolled down sitting at intersection so thats next! also I found a hose from drivers side valve cover that goes up into throttle body area did not have a hose clamp on it... will put one on tomorrow and see if any changes also!
K-Seal can work and has for me. I am 10,000 miles in. I had a minor leak off a water jacket in the back drivers side head, A drip a minute type of thing. I have noticed no sign of any leak since then. I have noticed no issue coolant blockage.
But Hell I am lazy and 14 bucks to save me a 2000 dollar job or 12 hours of my time doing heads was well worth my investment

ok something to point out.... I did run K Seal in my disco and I didnt really have any issues that I thought and Maybe this is or isn't an issue but its food for thought .... since then I have replaced radiator and hoses and water pump... none of those have contributed to any problem... I just had them and it was part of my 100k service... actually radiator did actually break but that was before the K seal.... come to find out my expansion tank was leaking.... now thats replaced also... when chaining everything because land was running a tiny bit warmer than what I see others getting even with the lower temp thermostat... I noticed on the return overflow line that comes form top of radiator to the expansion tank had some orange goo on it... Im suspecting my slight warmer ( nothing over 203deg in traffic south florida ) temps may be contributed to that metal tube gummed up.. I noticed when running the engine with expansion tank off I never see a strong squirt of water coming from that hose... even warmed up engine it is just a trickle... in the past when I first bought disco... I swear I remember it giving a nice squirty stream... anyway... Ill investigate this next week.... may be something people overlook especially when quitting form dexcool...
