'96 Explorer, V-6, auto. trans. I noticed a slight leak where the upper transmission cooler line comes thru the plastic radiator. It appears around a large washer and large nut that seem to hold the unit into the radiator. Before I dump a can of stop leak into my new antifreeze, can this be remedied by loosening the large nut and washer, cleaning the area and applying some silicone sealant before retightening the fasteners ? TIA
