Anyone use the blue devil oil stop leak or rear main fix jump to latest 4.1k views 5 replies 3 participants last post by 97jeepxj1 jun 8, 2018 9 Okay, so i used the blue devil in my ml320 because rear main seal started leaking about 4 months ago Not only has it slowed the leak way down, i think another application may stop it all together I don't use stop leaks in transmissions and cooling systems but it works wonderfully for oil leaks.
