Re: Hole in front of Engine block-UPDATE
First, thanks for all of the replies and suggestions.
Since I don't have an engine hoist, I decided to go the easy route and grind it all down and use an epoxy again. This time I used Belzona 1212 with some fiber mesh as a patch. Supposedly much better than JB Weld. So far so good... although it doesn't look pretty but she runs and that's all that matters! If I can get another 10+ years out of it with no leaks, I'll be shocked. Picture: https://appriver3651016241-my.sharep...tDZTA?e=DkmDGh Video: https://appriver3651016241-my.sharep...WK_OQ?e=ULqBnl |

Re: Hole in front of Engine block
I think you did the right thing, provided you do not take the car on long trips. Here's the thing... you just can't get anyone to do work right any more.
