a couple nights ago I had a pinhole leak in the 7 inch water hose under the alternator in my 84 gl.
I noticed it starting to overheat right when I got to work and it was spraying everywhere. fortunately I just got to work so it was cool in the morning when I got off.
I put several applications of super glue in the hole, put a patch of duck tape over it and a couple ties and off I went for the 42 mile commute home.
made it home without losing a drop. just replaced the hose today.
but it got me thinking about clever unusual fixes all of you have used to get home in an emergency . also what kind of tools have you concocted to use in place of the proper tool.
I still carry baling wire, duct tape, rubber, and even band aids. people at work say I have too much junk that I carry around but I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
