I recently purchased a 97 kx 500 with plans of restoring it from the ground up. I pulled the engine from the frame and noticed that the case was cracked around the oil drain plug (it was hidden by the skid plate when I checked it out) it turns out the previous owner did a poor job of installing a heli coil and cracked the case. Now I am in a delemia do I replace the cases, cut my losses, or try and weld the case. Thats where I noticed HTS-2000 does any one have some experiance with this brazing rod? It looks like it is pretty cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-cv3R4fWZc
Looks good, you already have the motor out flip it upside down and give it a try. If you can get the heli coil out, it looks like you can create a new hole with threads. If the stuff works it would be great Let us know what happens. 1 pound can of rods is 65 bucks on their website. Mike
