crack in transmission
Does anyone know a good way to repair a 1 inch crack in the transmission,
without having to pull everything out to replace the case. I have a Honda 2000 CRV auto trans front wheel drive. thank you Sandy |

However, if you want to save lots of money on the replacement of the case, I advise you to visit the largest junk yard in your area and ask how much they would charge you for a used case. Most of those junk yards are now on a special computer net work and can order you one from another junk yard even if they don't have one in stock. They also will guarantee it. I have had lots of success in dealing with the local junk yard. -- NEWSGROUP SUBSCRIBERS CREED We respect those subscribers that ask for advice or provide advice.

If its just a simple crack that's leaking oil, and not a major dent with loose bits, then do the following: 1. throughly clean the crack area with a wire brush and acetone or thinner 2. abrade the crack itself with a Dremel tool to make a V indent. Clean again with acetone or thinner 3. Get some JBWeld (2 part expoxy, about $10) and fill the crack. I've fixed a cracked block successfully with this, and it lasted 15 months until the head dropped a valve into a cylinder, at which point everything stopped ... Cheap and easy and may work just fine.
