I answered in your profile. The PM works best. But my main question is: What is the leak affecting? Like are you talking dash controls, motor, head lights?

Dash controls are the worst. Our 1980 plastic lines have deteriorated. You can pressurize the system with a mineral oil smoke making machine. Or you can use florescent dyes that can be seen under a black light.

Explain your type and I will see what I can do.
