Hi Guys,

I have a very very small hole on one of the welds for my shortened sump. I know that it will have to be taken off and repaired at some point via welding.

Does anybody have any suggestions as to a temporary fix for stopping the oil leak until I can get it fixed?

Cheers

clean with acetone and stick some metal weld epoxy on it

Rub a bar of soap into the hole (it blocks the hole long enough to repair), then wipe clean and cover with epoxy

It worked as a temporary fix for us to get us the couple of hundred miles home 3 years ago (ours was quite a bad one) it's still there, leak free

tank fix should do it

Do a temporary repair with some JB weld or similar,then
bring it up to my house and i will weld it
for you mate.

We are going to have to get the cars out sometime soon!!

If it's a round pin hole in a weld then a dot punch works.

Balming goo all over it just makes it hard work for the welder.
