  • Hunk 'o metal in waterbox!

    When a hole got put in one of the pistons of my last engine, a hunk of metal made it all the way to the waterbox. Sounds like its about the size of a marble. Being the chinese puzzle that a waterbox is, I can't seem to get the piece out of there. I doubt that it would make its way back to the engine so I'm wondering how much of a problem it presents. I guess my options are:

    1. It's easy to get out, you just need to... (fill in the blank)
    2. It ain't easy to get out and you'll need to cut the box, get the metal out and reweld it
    3. Just get a new waterbox, you'll never get it out of there.
    4. Just leave it in there.

    Your suggestions?

    Thanks!
