Its almost summer again and I got some great help here last year , some of you might remember me as the guy who found bondo on his engine block. Anyway my jb weld repairs were not holding last summer , they kept failing and leaking and I think its because the lower part of the crack was pushed out when it froze - its on a flat part of the water jacket, probably a good 4 inches long - and no , no water in the oil.
Long story short can I hammer the lower part of the crack back into shape with the top or is this too dangerous for the casting , obviously I have nothing to lose but I'd like to hear the voice of experience before I try - should I heat it before hitting it ect - I know this/these questions come up REPEATEDLY and are annoying , so thanks in advance for your patience
