Empty radiator/reservoir question blue devil integrity

Hello all! I have a 2003 3.1L. I had posted earlier that I was guessing that I had a lower intake manifold leak. I was getting oil gunk in my radiator, and I was leaking oil pretty good, good enough to turn on the lights for low oil pressure and change oil soon every couple of days. I threw some blue devil into the oil, and drove the car around as the directions said and it hasnt leaked a drop as far as I can tell, and its level has remained the same for about a month now.

The next issue im seeing is that the next day after we drive it we are having to refill the radiator and bleed it, as if it were leaking out pretty fast, but were not seeing any puddles. Performance wise its been ok, no white smoke or sluggish driving.

I want to pressure test it, but my main concern is will pressure testing the system rupture the blue devil fix I worked on the manifold?
 


i did blue devil in my 3.4 van for my head gasket. been great since put a 180 fail open thermo. It was over heating because it wasnt building enough cylinder pressure i was bleeding it every day.

maybe you have a head gasket issue to. maybe try the devil in the cooling system
