Know first hand JB weld works on a cracked block had a guy who didn't have antifreeze in his car cracked the engine block on his station wagon. My father who was a mechanic told him get a new motor. He didn't have the money yet and kept pestering my dad who finally only half seriously said throw some JB weld on it. They just cleaned it and put it on with no prep work like you did. He drove the car several more years until it wasn't worth repairing and the JB weld never failed. Made me a believer.
Jambow Jambow Thant is awesome....thanks for sharing!
I talked to a friend of mine who owns a machine shop and he told that's how they repair cracked blocks and heads today as they don't have time repair cracked blocks and heads! I've also used it in industrial application to repair machine surface where a corner or something has broken off ! It's also good to about 600*!
It does work. I had the same thing happen to me. Smaller crack maybe 4 to 5 inch long. JB weld worked pretty good and it salvaged my season.
Best part is all the people who talked shit and left nasty comments can suck it. Glad to see it worked.
Heading to the lake again tomorrow!!!
The stuff is awesome if used properly...........yeah I aggree there are some fools out there who have NO idea had they are talking about {shit is an under statement} have a good one man
I repaired my leaking toyota Camry block with Jb weld.....Total fix!!! Water leak fixed and the pressure is now up and running for over a year now!! Love my JB, Just use it properly and it will pay off!
That’s kick ass
How long did it last?
I can run for 500k without a problem?
Thanks for posting this update bought a boat with the same problem. I am going to try it. Let me know if you want an update on it. Going to get stuff now
Thanks for the follow up. I will be doing the same repair on my mercruiser 3.0.
I believe there is a time that JB Weld is an appropriate product to use for a repair. In your case, there was no pressure to speak of where you crack developed. The pressure was from water freezing and expanding, that pressure is no longer there. The next important aspect of "should you use JB weld" is to do the PREPARATION PROPERLY. I recently read where a fellow uses super glue while a vacuum is used to put in the crack BEFORE the JB Weld. I believe most failures of JB Weld are due to improper prep work and the wrong application.
It was also appropriate that you keep those pesky people off the inner tube .😂
i used jb weld on my aluminum radiator once, it was a quick fix and did the job.
Thanks for letting us know....I have not tried it on aluminum so that is good to know!
please keep in mind that i did say "quick fix" haha
imma be using this weekend to try and fix a small leak in my car a.c. unit. I hit a deer and my radiator got pushed back but didn't bust any coolant or transmission lines etc. but my low pressure line by the compresser hit the spinning compresser and put a small hole in it. I don't go anywhere on weekends so imma let it sit for 2 days and really gop it on there to try to make a good seal and see what happens. It shoots r134 straight out as it is now has 0 pressure can't get any worse
my Man Donnie Smith!!!! I like your attitude and the content , thanks for the great vid and the useful info.
who gives a crap what others say or think mate...watched both videos mainly coz im trying to find some feedback on metal epoxys coz i need to stick something together which i think is a lot easier than what u had to do so made up my mind about jb weld...screw ppl...if they think they know so much better...post a video to prove it...thanx for the videos mate...been a real great help...all the best from spain
I would suggest cleaning with meiotic acid before JBwelding any cast iron cracks. It will etch the iron crystal structure as well as eat out any iron oxide that has formed. Just rinse the acid out extremely well with something like asatone or mineral spirits (paint thinner) then heat to evaporate the chemicals. The problem with JBweld is once you do it, it's going to make the proper repair almost impossible due to weld contamination. So if your gonna try this, do it so it will last as long as possible.
Where can I buy MEIOTIC ACID?
@@baileydbenson1 Home Depo or Lowes. It's used mainly to clean concrete. It is Low grade sulfuric acid so do not get it on your skin.
Hey Donnie, I have the same boat, same inboard and same crack (my crack is small compared to yours!) Thanks for the video and we'll start the repair this week.....
WFVS did it work??
Awsome video. Took my boat out yesterday and it has a good size crack in it aswell in almost the same place. Im Gonna try the JB weld job. Thanks for posting the video. Keep up the good work.
Did it work
JB is good stuff. BTW, if you want another idea for rust, you can glue in a metal panel using Lepage's Polyurethane caulking. Not the construction adhesive, the sealant! It used to come in black, white or grey, but all I can find now is grey. Obviously get rid of as much loose rust as you can, glue it in from behind and let it set up as close to 72 hours as you can, in warm weather. The patch should be there pretty much permanently. I've used it to hold together plywood carts that held a 2 or 3 hundred pounds of laundry and they stayed together until the plywood started to delaminate. I used it to fill a small finger tip sized rust hole, smoothed it with a wet finger, and it stayed for at least 3 years, until I sold the car. I did not find the DAP product nearly as durable or strong bonding so all bets are off for that product, but the Lepage's is like a flexible rubbery JB Weld for being tough and versatile.
glad too see its worked for you, will be using it on a crack on my block tommorow, hopefully I'll get similar results
Jam Richardson did it work?
Results bro?
Well?
My marine mechanic will use JB WELD to repair lower units that have cracked due to owners not draining the oil and water for winter storage. I use JB WELD KWIK to fasten a 10 - 20 round magazine box to the Savage Axis floor plate after I cut a hole in the floor plate.
JB Wells a good product I’ve used it quite a bit but it will not work on exhaust manifold. Too hot burns out.
Yeah good job Donnie...........I am going to give jbweld on a cracked clutch casing on my dirt bike.
Thanks man
should work fine if its not stressed. I carry some with me on rides
This is good to know, I forgot to drain the water out of my 77 K5 mud truck, and the block cracked in 2 places. I don't have the money for a new 350 small block, and I haven't gotten all the parts for my twin turbo LS build yet.
LS build, B18. What u got that in
I agree! Nice work man
nice Donnie I got a hole in my Motorcycle Crank Case about 1" + 3/4 " . I plan on Fixing it with Quik Steel . Thanks for your Video ;>)
Thanks for sharing

Dude! Great Video and information!
Can Jb weld fix my broken heart? 💔
Of course...It'll cure your psoriasis and asthma too. It's the oil of Aphrodite, and the dust of the Grand Wazoo.
Follow up? Did you ever try it? If so, did it work? I'm just curious.... It's for a friend.
No.
Is it jb weld..available in the phillipines?
Thanks for this video brother!!!!
does it really work on something that you going to be using a lot
Just put my rear dif on my yamaha timberwolf 250 back together with JB weld, lets see how it holds.
did. it. hold. up
Nope pretty much split instantly, ended up trying a bunch of different types of poxy welds none of them worked had to just get a new one.
that sucks. bet. thanks for. the. respone
If the numbers on JB Weld are correct then this stuff is as strong as steel, no wonder it would work out then.
you didn't add Eric the car guy link
Can I put in it a cylinder head to hold the water in from going to the piston or when the water gets hot will it peal off
What JB weld is really good for is glue things together... So when I JB welded my cracked block... I put a layer on, then stitched across the crack with pieces of copper, and then quickly put a thicker layer over that all while it's still wet. You can even use pennies or sheet metal or even screen or whatever you want. Just reinforce it across the crack.
Jb weld is number one.............
do you think JB weld would hold a bolt to a broken bolt inside a hole essentially making an unbroken bolt just long enough to remove said bolt from hole?
I highly doubt that would work as the force required to remove the bolt would be outside the jb weld specs and you would probably squeeze jb on the threads and then make it impossible to remove
Did you ever find or fix where the other leak was?
Anyone think I can use it for 3 inch crack on my 96 Honda Civic Manifold? Planing on getting it replaced but I can't afford to do so for another 30 or 40 days. And I really need to get it smoged.
J-B marine weld did not work on my 2.5hp nissan outboard motor. a peice broke off the power head and i tried to rebuild the piece that broke off with jb and it broke right off
Cool
do u think jb weld would work on a car water pump for a 98 accord?
I don't know for sure. It is still holding on the boat, but I repaired it not knowing if it would hold or not for sure.
Absolutely not, it will only work on a earlier years up to 97 accords and only on those models, not on civic's etc..etc..
How's that Jb weld repair of yours holding up now a days?
Had the boat out yesterday pulling people tubing. Its still doing good!
Does it still hold good
JB Weld is a brand. You need to state what exact product you used.
JB Weld
Is that still holding
is that Florida? are there gators in that lake?
Delta airlines use jb weld!!!
Just watched your other video of you using the JB Weld. I am assuming that you had a crack in your water jacket on the block. You did great preparation prior to using the JB Weld where other videos I've seen they just slap it on with little or no preparation and then shoot a video complaining that it doesn't work. Drilling a " stop hole " at each end of the crack shows you are using your brain- good job.
I had a boat with an inboard-outboard Mercury marine engine in it. What they say about a boat owner: " The two happiest days in a boat owners life is the day he buys it.... and the day he sells it " lol
I don't know how many hours I spent working on my boat engine but if I had $5 for each hours I'd be very wealthy now. I hope your repair continues to work for you, I don't want to see you fry your engine.
About the winter freezing your engine causing the crack - just a thought, drill and put a drain plug on the lowest point on your water jacket so you can completely drain ALL the water out before winter.
Good job... have a great summer.
yeah but a boat doesn't take you back and forth to work every day. JB Weld is good stuff though.
If it works,then it's fine, no matter what the nay sayers say.
If it looks stupid, but it works, it isn't stupid.
Whats the tune???
I could of done without all that photo zooming in and out stuff, just saying.

The title of this video is literally "follow up!" He literally says in the video that this is a follow-up video to give an update on how well the JB Weld is holding up. Did you just not listen or read anything? Just a great video. You are just an idiot.
