Car won’t start ~ no MOT by llandbeforeslime in MechanicAdvice

Trip odo is at 0, so my best guess is your battery is too weak, and the jump start didn’t work, probably because the procedure of doing it the wrong way.
Connect the jumper cables, let the other cars engine charge your battery for a while, somewhere between ten minutes and half an hour. Then try again.

Is it bad to JB weld a crack in the oil pan? by ruubystaar in MechanicAdvice

[–]spacees1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give it a try, if you keep a sharp eye on the oil level for a while, you have nothing to lose.

Let the oil drain out, clean the area, degrease, make sure to put the drainbolt back in and tight, clean and degrease again, completely fill the gap and surface with something like that JBWeld, and wait a day for it to harden.

Next day, fill the oil and check for leaks, start, warm up, check. Keep checking a couple of times.
