So I've got a leaking rear main. It's not bad, but it's annoying b/c it's the last fluid that still leaks - power steering and coolant were their own "entertaining" challenges. About a teaspoon over night if it has been running.

Some time in the not too distant future I'll be changing the clutch out, so I'll include a seal in the job, but until then I was wondering if this stuff was worth trying.

Anyone ever tried the rear main seal leak stuff?

Opinions as to whether it's a waste of money or actually useful for a small leak?

Remember we all dont believe in quick fixes, I mean you can try it. But dont expect magic. It might be a temp fix. Or it might not fix it at all, maybe worse. I tried some of that radiator leak stop stuff, and it clogged everything up and made it worse.

Yeah, I'm worried about making things worse instead of better.

Was planning to switch to 15/40 Rotella T oil first to see if that helps. Currently running 10/30, which might be a little too thin for a rig this age.

Try a bottle of lucus oil additive with the oil next time or even right now, ive seen it work a few times
