[QUOTE="Mercniac, post: 1433445, member: 27401"] I couldn't find specific sleeve retainer sealant where I live so I asked the local diesel shop to sell some to me,but he said he uses red Loctite thread lock and that I should use it also, I just finished pressurizing the coolant system again, I found no cups leaking on the top edge/flange but I found at least four cups leaking at the bottom flange,, after 30minutes under pressure, four cylinders filled with water, I pumped the water out, then inserted a narrow/twisted piece of paper towel into the small hole in the bottom of the cup only about 1/4" and it was soaked with coolant immediately. Difficult to detect because it just drips down into the cylinder. I'm going to replace all eight cups again, and I'll pull my glow plugs this time. The cups that I put in before are after market, not sure what brand but this time I got my cups and sleeve retainer from Ford. Thanks for the response [/QUOTE]
