I have fixed several heads this way and it has been permanent on them. Of course if you can see where it is leaking hit the area with some weld and then the epoxy treatment
Hey Mike, could you fix a set of iron Bow ties that Haskell did for me 15 years ago? They were awesome, till the epoxy broke loose, and filled about 5 cylinders with water. Just wondering, or should I trash them. Had a ton of $'s in them, and it's hard to trash them.
