Subject:      J B Weld: My experience with

TWIMC; I used J B Weld as a temporary fix when my coolant level warning switch (located on the coolant expansion tank i.e. immersed in coolant) sheared in half in the middle of B.F.Egypt on a sunday. The repair held for the entire 400mile trip BUT shortly there after gave out. The once rock hard substance absorbed fluid and became spongy! I personally would not use it to repair aluminum heads in contact with anti-freeze because of this. To be clear I am talking about the epoxy-like substance that comes in two tubes and must be mixed. I regret that I did not make this connection earlier.
