JB Weld Problems! OK I dont know how many people are going to call me an idiot but here it goes. So I am doing the port/polish on the TB and im doing the epoxy. Now I've only used epoxy once or twice before and this was for something on a flat surface. But guess where I didnt cover up well enough on th TB? The PCV vent thing. It got all in there and dried <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />
got that little pipe off and used a dremel to get the jb weld out. Im sure there is more in other places. This teaches you kids, dont be an idiot with epoxy, I'm feeling the aftermath.
Anyone have any tips for getting the rest off? I think I can do it but its going to take hours...

Re: JB Weld Problems! Well, here's a TTT for ya.As I said in the other post,you should have tried that plumbers putty(epoxy).Its workable in your hands and not runny,100 times better IMO.
Good luck with your project though <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: JB Weld Problems! When I put the JB Weld in there it got in places that I didnt want it to. I tried taping off certian areas but im fairly inexperianced with epoxy. Main problem was it got in the vent to the PCV. That little 90 degree turn is hard to get dried epoxy out of
