Ya, if you cant remove it completely, it would be very difficult to check if the rubber pad/seal thing is aligned correctly.
If you can just loosen the bolt a bit, you can try squeezing in some kind of caulk or epoxy, but I am not sure how well that would hold unless you used something like a marine epoxy
Thank you for actually answering. Do you think it would leave a residue on the cloths and would last for a long time?
Something like that?
Hoses, Barbed hose splicer and clamps for cooling hose patches and bypasses (ie heater core failure).
Distilled water or premixed coolant.
Underwater Putty for emergency patches ie. radiator, diff, oil pan, etc.
Permatex make a gasket for those type of failures.
Edit: what type of rig are you driving?
Man, don't give up hope. I have a cylindrical double-triple perc bong that I broke the base off of a couple years back, i just recently picked up some of JB's Water Weld and made a new one. Totally worth it and doesn't leak at all.
> pig putty
I jb weld'd a plastic gas tank for my lawn equip. idk the longevity of jb weld on a spot like that but marine epoxy or water weld can hold up on conditions for a semi-perm fix. This a common thing in the boat industry.
JB Weld is excellent. They make an underwater one : http://www.amazon.com/J-B-Weld-8277-WaterWeld-Underwater/dp/B000BRQ0TW
But I suspect that even their regular one would work.
Will this work

Hey thanks in advance for any assistance. This pipe leads all wastewater from toilets, showers, and sinks to our septic tank. The crack leaks continuously even though I haven’t run water or flushed a toilet in hours. I see epoxy putty like this or pic/plastic repair kits like this. Are these effective solutions for this crack? How can I stop the water from dripping? I assume these products won’t set if the area is wet and continuously leaking.

On a similar note, probably also not the technically correct repair, But 4 years ago I repaired several 1 inch sized dings through the gel coat on my keel with JB WaterWeld. Before applying I cleaned it the area well with rubbing alcohol and a toothbrush and then dried it with a hair dryer. The boat is white so it was a good match, and with just a little sanding it looked pretty darn good. Four years later those repairs are still holding strong. Good luck with your repairs OP. It should be an easy fix, just be sure to take care of right away before it gets worse.
Edit: Marine Weld might be a better match for you since it will dry a dark grey like your hull. I prefer to work with the putty that I linked above because it is easier to shape. But I bet the marine weld would do a good job for you too.
This is a pipe method that's worked well for me.
Ingredients:
Cram the piece of wadding into the pipe to the desired depth, probably just the length of the hilt. Mash it in tight enough that it doesn't move too easily. Mix your epoxy putty together, and before it dries, break it into a number of smaller wads that will drop easily to the depth of your temporary plug. Use a dowel or similar flat-ended stick to gently mash the wads into a solid plug, being careful not to push your temporary plug further down into the pipe. Once the epoxy dries, it's basically indestructible and will survive anything that won't also destroy the pipe it's inside of. Fill the space between the epoxy plug and the very top of the pipe with the lead shot. If you like, you can add another piece of wadding between the lead shot and the end of the pipe before you put the cap on, to keep the hilt from rattling like a maraca. Put the cap on and secure it in place: strength is key here, so using PVC weld isn't a bad idea.
This gives a very nice balance to a sword. The most interesting thing for me about a weighted hilt is how, even though the total sword is heavier, it feels lighter in your hand, because the center of gravity is closer to your wrist.
Hey, the same thing happened to me. Go on Amazon or your local hardware store and buy this: WaterWeld Underwater Epoxy Putty
Think of it as industrial strength silly putty. Apply to the crack, let it set for 24 hours and you should have a working system again. Granted, this might be a temporary fix but for the price you really can't go wrong.
If your system still isn't working you may have a crack somewhere else or some of the parts in your vacuum breaker housing may have come dislodged and need to be reassembled (mine has a plastic cap on top that could be unscrewed).
