Hey guys, so long story kind of short the water pump bearing failed and resulted in cutting into the timing chain casing. Now it was repaired temporarily with quiksteel but only lasted a few months. So i decided to take the pump off and try doing it again, only this time the whole piece of alluminium fell off and left a big hole!
So, i fished the missing piece out of the engine and i wanted to go about getting the hole welded over, however nobody wants to touch it as it is.
My choices now are to either try something stronger than quiksteel and put a piece of alluminium over the hole but i would prefer to have it done properly so my next choice is to remove the timing chain casing and go and get it welded...
So the question is, what is involved in removing the timing chain casing? I already have the rocker cover removed
Any help much appreciated as a i am now at my witts end and cant decide what to do.
