I have a tranny case leak that needs a repair. Here is a pic of the leak, which when warmed up is about one large drop a second.
I figure that I should do a real weld for the permanent fix, but would like to do a temp fix so I can drive over to my welder brother-in law about a 100 miles away. So, what is the best liquid weld goop for this type of a hole (about 1-2 mm in diameter)? |

I used JB weld on a old 30+ year old, Campbell Hausfeld air compressor that had a chunk of the shaft where the key way is, got chipped out, and was not enough meat left to support the pulley. I just sanded it a bit, sprayed it with brake parts cleaner, and got a new key, and then turned it on it's side, and JB welded the whole end together as one unit. Still working today. I wasn't going to dump a bunch of $ into an old compressor.
