Just got done patching a few holes, one more big one i'm not looking forward to in the future. Going to paint the patches tomorrow after the epoxy is dry (was only small holes with no weight, the big hole is where I might weld it)

My radiator hose decided to blow out today while I was in the Dunkin Donuts drivethrough.....had to fix it with some electrical tape and a gallon of water and it worked as good as new, until it started to leak again outside of the repair shop.

I did see the three bolts holding down the battery tray, sprayed them with WD-40 but had no luck. Everything (seems like it anyway) is rusted and stuck. I gave up and put it all back together. Time to save up for a mechanic...

WD-40 won't help with rusted screw and bolts, you need some PB-blaster or some Kroil (I use Kroil oil, that stuff will get anything loose)

If a 17 year old can get it off then you can to.
