What is your question?
I’ve been trying to put K-seal in my radiator but I can’t stop the radiator cap from leaking. I put a new cap on but it still is leaking. My truck is not overheating at all. And it’s getting plenty of heat from in cabin. Could the radiator be bad or something else. There is no outside leaks but I’m loosing fluid out the cap.
How long has your 2018 Ram 1500 had this problem?

Hi, this is Bo, an auto expert on RepairPal's Car Genius team! If you're leaking coolant from the radiator cap on your 2018 Ram 1500, even after replacing the cap, it could point to excess pressure building up in the cooling system. This might happen if the radiator itself is clogged or there’s an issue with the head gasket causing combustion gases to enter the coolant. The K-seal you’re trying to use is a temporary fix, but if the cap can't hold the pressure, you’ll need to check for underlying issues. A pressure test on the cooling system can help reveal what's causing the leak.
