My 2000 Ford Taurus does not have a radiator cap on top just a resevoir. Can i put some stop leak in the over flow or resevoir? If I can what is the best stop leak to use? I just need a temporary fix until after Christmas. Thanks

Sealer is not recommended
(yes if to add it goes in the side over flow )
it does more harm than good
if you can do with out will be a better choice
replace the radiator
good luck
