[90dpscoupe]

No pic necesarry, i have it driving again, thank god, i was missing my car badly, but i did JB weld it, just put a dab of it on the break, no problems that i know of, and that black foam, or rubber stuff has to be the sealer like you said, he did use some black stuff for the shifter, but the break is further down? oh well no threads broke out, dont see any reason to pull it down and weld, it's working just fine, i guess i panicked...as always thanx, you guys are great
