Howdy,
I noticed a newish leak under the car. So I clean up the bottom best I could and let it sit for a bit. The leak appears to just seep through the case slowly but consistently. Maybe a defect or small crack? I'm wondering what my options are here? Only solved with a new case or is there a band aid until this can be bundled with other related maintenance? Cheers.  |

2nd on the JB weld.
Biggest trick is to get the cracked alloy housing clean! I once repaired a Toyota cylinder head blow out between chambers with JB weld. The missing section was the size of my little finger between #1 and 2. I advised customer (a good friend) that it would last 6 minutes... Long enough to take it to CarMax or another dealer. It actually lasted 11 months and 16K miles before it shit the bed a second time. I was shocked! JB weld as an integral part of two combustion chambers! Larry (my friend) had won a 7-figure lawsuit by that time, and they just threw the car away... |
