lucky to find a used engine with so few miles on it

**jons02gts** · 03-17-2010, 08:49 AM

well it depends on the year of the motor, and how long its been since it last ran.

before you swap the motors id swap out the oil pump and water pump. just as a precaution.

**jons02gts** · 03-17-2010, 08:52 AM

I have used JB WELD many times and even had to do a roadside repair on an aluminum oil pan myself that had a pencil sized hole punched in it and in my opinion, if you use this product correctly, patch it up and your good to go with no worries. After I patched the aluminum oil pan I kept a close eye on it for a few weeks, no leaks at all, brought it to a shop for permanent repair and the welder said the patch is most likely stronger than the pan itself so we left it and never had a problem. Where I work we use this product on commercial hot water heaters (90 psi working pressure) when they get old and spring a leak, until we can order a replacement, and at first I was skeptical but let me tell you this stuff is great, never failed us! On your pan I would drain your oil (leave draining over night so it’s not still dripping at all) and clean the area VERY WELL (brake clean is what I used), scuff up the surrounding area with course sandpaper so the JB WELD can adhere, apply, let it set up and your done. I love this J B Weld stuff. I can’t guarantee anything but I am very confident! Just remember CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN before applying any adhesive.

jb weld is great stuff it is a must have for off roaders. i have seen people use it to path suspension parts that broke off roading. they used and drove back to their house at highway speeds with no problem.
