Water leak from upper exhaust.

[scuba75@gmail.com]

I have a small water leak in the head pipe assembly right above the front motor mount. It appears like it might be a small rusted out hole. As I do not want to purchase a new pipe right now ($500) is there some other way of fixing this? maybe with solder? Will it get to hot and melt the solder making it leak again. Thanks for any help.

You have 2 choices to repair the pipe. 1) Scuff the surface and use a 2 part epoxy and epoxy the small hole. Or 2) Remove the pipe and have it welded so it won't leak again. Remember to repaint it so it won't corrode from the water.
