Mens Help Line..
Hi John,
I really need your advice on a serious problem:
I have suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me. The usual signs: if the phone rings and I answer, the caller hangs up; she goes out with the girls a lot.
I try to stay awake to look out for her when she comes home but I usually fall asleep.
Anyway last night about midnight I hid in the shed behind my motorbike. When she came home she got out of someone's car buttoning her blouse, then she took her panties out of her purse and slipped them on.
It was at that moment crouched behind the bike that I noticed a hairline crack in the engine mounting bracket.
Is that something I can weld or do I need to replace the whole bracket?

Re: Mens Help Line..
It depends on how good your welding skills are. If you grind the crack out completely and then fill it in with good quality welds, it will be as strong as new.MadKaw wrote:Mens Help Line..

I'd replace the whole bracket, something as important as that demands your full attention and care!
