[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 458417, member: 15636"] If not leaking, I sure wouldn't ... could cause more harm! Most guys I know would file it smooth and be done with it ... I've repaired OB powerheads with M-Tex and even then drilled&tapped it to hold a bolt for the starter ... and that OB motor is still being used as is! My only gripe about M-Tex is that the mix ratio s#$ks to me ... so I end up using 1/4 to 1/2 the container to ensure I got the correct mix ratio. Translated - tough to mix small batches. Surface prep will be key, better oversize glob to get it to hold. Shape with Dremel when cured. [/QUOTE]
