Curently patching my radiator (3yrs now). Held my shift linkage until I could weld it.

This stuff belongs in the glove box, cause you never know....

This stuff was designed back in the 50s to fix cracks in flat head ford blocks on the salt lake cars, it rocks. I life the original formula(sets over night) for max strength, but JB quck weld is great in a pinch, it sets up in fifteen minutes.

Used it once to plug up a freeze plug on the back of an engine since we didnt want to take it off the car to actually fix it... we just put some of that ---- on it an it hasnt leaked antifreeze anymore

I dont think it can take high heat.... there is another material that is used for that... but i wouldnt really trust it as it could fall off get sucked up by the turbo and ruin your day.

do u reckon i could get away with JB weld on my turbo oil return, u know the bit that goes into the sump. im not one for welding so i was gonna get a threaded fitting and put some JB weld there just to be on the safe side
by the way that website customcoach posted is well handy, i work on that trading estate
