broken coil mount
« on: May 13, 2016, 06:45:15 pm »
Has anybody broken a coil mounting ear off the block, that was able to be repaired?  And if so, how, or what is the preferred method?  Its a clean break, and the block is used, so I am unsure of how clean the aluminium can get for welding it. Thanks, Jim.

sould be easy to weld for a good welder. problem is since its on top of the sleeve there good chance the cylinder will move. might need to rebore after welding

thanks, and it needs to be bored out anyways, so it is quite possible to do.
