Question type: Maintenance & Repair

rusted through can I block them at master

Agree with above 100%, park it or fix it. Hokey half ass 'fixes' from olden days aren't going to cut it on modern vehicles.

Yes. The smart thing to do would be park it if you can’t fix it.. I’m not going to tell you to “park it or fix it”. Because your a grown ass man. People tend to get mouthy and tough on the internet. It’s been my experience that these same people, when called upon outside the internet are not so ignorantly demanding. Yes if I were you I would fix it, but ultimately I wouldn’t tell you”while making you sound like a child” to Park it or fix it. Have I got my point across? Hope so! Have a great day and remember your only asking for advice not to be talked down to.
