Leak from Check Valve

Do you guys think JB Weld will be ok to patch this until Friday? I've already degreased everything and layered a big thick coating and a thinner coating over that. I'll probably put 200 miles on the car by then.

no.. I took just a TAD to much metal off with my dremel.. And I slightly damaged the rubber o-ring. Every time I hit the clutch it just squirted out of the hole. The hole is so small I can't even see it.

should have included this in your Original Post, so that others dont have to guess as to what is failing.

with this information; your first post makes more sense.
and I would use JB weld as well, as its only temporary.

Ok. Well What I'm worried about is that I have to travel out of state.. About 200 miles total.. I wish someone welded aluminum around here. I'd just get that done if it were the case.

Noone around you has a slave cylinder in stock? If I was taking a trip, the last thing i would want is to break down on the side of the road for something so small and that you KNOW about.

Nope. Honda deal could have got it in tomorrow, but it's the 4th.

What about soldering it? I haven't put the CV on the car yet. I'm thinking of soldering the shiiiiiiiiit out of it and then putting jb weld on it.

Soldering might work. I'd preheat the area a little to try and get any grease or oil out of the aluminum before putting solder down on it. Then wire brush it to make sure its clean and free of foreign matter.
