Small coolant leak

[Btucker805]

I’ve had this 17 ram 1500 for about 6 months and all has been well. 3.6, 70k miles, needed nothing but new tires and I changed all the fluids. I remote started to go fishing one day, kinda cold, 45ish, and went out and there was a bit of coolant under the front bumper. Took the plastic cover off and it seems to be dripping from the drain valve and also seeping a bit from the bottom corner of the radiator, as circled in the pic. When truck comes up to temp the leaking stops. I guess I’ll just replace the radiator when time allows but as a temp fix could I just cap that drain valve and smear a little jb radiator repair around the bottom corner where it’s seeping? Just flushed and filled the coolant so I’d like to wait to do it all over again till maybe it gets worse, thanks, don’t see any other leaks in the cooling system

Stop leaks are permanant solutions these days and really work... Will fix any leak in system not only head gaskets. most famously is their use with oems on new vehicles, shh they don't want that secret out.

Replacing a blown Head Gasket can be difficult and expensive. Sometimes your car is not worth fixing and this is where a head gasket sealer in a bottle comes...
