Resolved 1991 Talon TSi water pipe cracked

[2ggst1998]

Somehow it seems as if there is a crack right after where the lower radiator hose connects to my water pipe. I just want to know if this is weldable or should I just buy another one?

I keep searching online but I just can't find one on sale. There's a lot of 2g water pipes on sale but from what I've read those won't work on a 1g. Does anyone have an extra one to sell to me or will this water pipe be weldable?

Thanks

I think there made of aluminum if im not wrong, if its cracked you might be able to weld it or it may be more cost efficient to just replace, do you have any pictures? maybe a junk yard has one.

I don't have pictures of it yet but I just felt right where the coolant line for the turbo is and it feels like coolant is coming from there. There is no dsm at any junk yard close by that would've been my best bet. But I want to buy another one but there is nothing online.

Have you tried miller imports? I would try him and see what he has to say.

if ur adventurous u could always custom make one or call a welding shop and say hey weld me something up exactly like this then ull have something brand new and strong....

It would be easier to get on the DSM facebook groups and just buy one off the million people selling stuff or try craigslist.

I've checked every Craigslist within like a 100 mile radius. Has anyone welded there water pipe?

Yeah I had to cut and weld a fitting onto mine for the braided hose to connect to
