What type of epoxy could i use to repair tiny cracks in my coolant system? 2001 linoln ls v8

SOURCE: 2002 LS: aHow do I fill radiator in my V8 Lincoln LS...

First- to drain ,you can reach the drain valve,from the pass side,if you lay on the ground and reach up to the radiator. You do not even have to raise the vehicle up
Second- mix Yellow GO5 Coolant about 50/50 or 60/40. Do not use Green in a Ford or Orange GM
To Fill- Remove the front two plastic screw type buttons,from the engine cover
-Remove the cover
The radiator cap is on the front of engine,on top,it is plastic
Remove cap and that is your fill point
Run engine to warm and get thermostat open,as you would with any vehicle
Top off coolant,replace cap
VERY IMPORTANT-next to the Power Brake Booster,and just under it,is a BLEEDER HOSE;to let air out of system. Turn screw slot ,only a little,DO NOT REMOVE SCREW. When coolant runs out close.
Fill-Degas Bottle,to full line,with coolant.
Check the next couple days on resevoir level ( Degas Bottle)

SOURCE: lincoln ls v8 2001 im leaking coolant directly

from my past experience this car is going to need a new coolant tank the molding seam opens when hot and leaks.

SOURCE: draining radiator coolant

IF it was really dirty before empying the old coolant - you should do a flush before re-fill with the new collant.. You can get it at any local parts store.. Follow the directions..
IF SO - I highly recomend Lucas prduct.. More money - but really good stuff.

If it was not too bad - yes - run some water therough it..

Allways do 50/50.. If you use too much coolant - you risk the cooant gelling..

Also - there should be a Lucus pruduct that is a coolent additive and is also a great lubricant for the system and water pump - to make it last longer..

Please dont forget to rate well ;o)

It is on the Driver side of engine in between the COP's (Coil on plugs) simply unplug the wire use a 19 or 3/4 deep well socket and unscrew it and put it new one... The whole process should only take 10-15 minutes.
