[SEL] Johnson Iron Horse connecting rod

[ELIDAS at aol.com]

 I have a generator with a Johnson Iron Horse on it.  The connecting rod has 
about .018 clearance an is pretty scored. The crank appears to be ok. I would 
like to try the aluminum "welding" rod I bought at Kinzers to restore 
clearance. This is the stuff sold at a stand where the guy joins cans, fixes castings 
etc. Anyone ever try it?
