| JIM..... Could you cut out the bad part and weld in a patch? I tried posting Pictures but i dont have enough posts to do so i guess... Its only about the size of a dime... so the patch could be a 2 inch square to make sure the bad Aluminum is gone. I didnt realize your shop was in Clinton... My inlaws live right down by Cedar Island... Chris | ||
