Will my engine crack in half?
#24
After being stranded on my CB1100 twice with split crankcases, I tried Cormanus' latch-and-gasket repair technique. It works fine. But since I don't have access to used 20W-50 tractor oil, I've found that fresh GN4 (10W-30), mixed with some 80W-90 hypoid oil, does the trick. If it happens again, I'll try adding a little JB Weld to the oil to hold things together longer. I'll keep everyone posted.
