[VAC] Re: removal of black water tank shroud



Several years ago I broke a bolt off flush with the aluminum
casting on a VW water pump on a water cooled Vanagon.

I put a lot of liquid wrench on the broken stud for several days.
Then I took the pump to a body shop down the street and
told the man there we only had one chance to make this work.

I had him arc weld another bolt to the broken stud and whoopee
the broken one backed right out.

Sometimes your lucky other times things don't work out.
