opeldean is on a distinguished road
made an error

the problem is "i used JB stick weld on the external surfaces"

its melting point is 250 not the 600 of reg jb weld...therefore..i felt it best to start over. to combat the problem of running of reg jb weld..i confined it eith caly and tape...i shoved 4 bolts in the corner to fil dead spaces.

the installation of my "buckometer" in folowing photo reveals that i am really sick..for your viewing pleasure..

PS: everything i have done on my opel..i have redone at least once.
