Or you could take it to them and if the hole isnt a big issue they might just braise it shut. Id steer clear of adding any stop leak shit unless you were stuck on the side of the road somewhere.

kangaroosa Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 Clean the paint off and solder it. Quote
kiahn Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 yeh solder it, don't braise as you will probably remove the solder that is already there Quote
Taz_Rx Posted October 25, 2009 Report Posted October 25, 2009 If you want to be a tight arse then go and find a product by permatex called "need it". Its a 2 part epoxy putty thats made for fixing small leaks in radiators and fuel tanks. :S Quote
