QuestionI have a 99 Dodge Durango my radiator was leaking a couple of weeks ago so I put some of the stop leak into the radiator and it stop the leak till I can get it replace next month but I notice the water in the radiator is a chalk white color is this what suppose to happen and do I need to get my radiator flush or just go ahead and wait till next month to replace it will this chalk color stop the car from running or will it damage it at all?
Answerstop leak is the worst thing that was ever invented.
Your coolant needs to be a 50/50 mix of the green stuff and water. The chalk is air and stop leak mixing with the old coolant and it will cause more issues then u have now like clogging up heater cores and making water pumps fail.
