Anyone in the greater bay area with a welder?
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) My clutch tube broke lose (again) this morning with a loud bang as i was shifting into 4th getting on the freeway. The rear seems OK but the front part is just flopping in the wind. Looks like it's time to weld in a stronger clamp in the front, my last patch lasted some 15 years but obviously wasn't quite strong enough. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

Hi Andy - Do you need to borrow a welder? I have a MIG that works on 220 or 110.
You're welcome to it. Or if you can get the car to my place, we can do the repair here. PM me if I can help. Chris |

I'm in the process of rewiring my entire house, so i'd rather not try to burn it down by running a welder on 65 year old wiring with no ground. If i can temporarily rig it up i should be able to make it to your place, i'll do some fiddling with it this weekend and let you know. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
