You can get a new motor (upgrade) for a few hjndred these days so not a bad oportunity.

Best of luck

Plenty of backyard guys into furnace/cast metals [youtube sensations] that might cast you one?

Tap a breather in the end of it and silastic it together ( Dont use there useless paper gasket)
If it’s only cracked on the end there....

Well that’s what I’d do

Well that’s what I’d do

Yeah, but I hear that you are Rough.

Absolutely nothing, it's just I would not tell everybody. [I can sell you a whole tube if you like?]

Thanks Barra.
I have looked into upgrading the motor. Hoping not to spend the dollars at the moment if I can.
Bought an M12000 for $100 that came off a service truck. Bugger all use but the mud had caked on around the end cap and corroded it away. All the internals are like new.
It also seems a shame to waste the motor internals.

If you can send me the sample or even a dimensioned drawing i can machine you one out of billet, shouldn't be too expensive

Thanks Andrew. Sorry bout the slow reply.
Thinking I might bite the bullet and upgrade the motor. Try to get it waterproof.
