I see. But my water outlet has a big leak and if I don't replace it then the bike cannot work. Do I have any other way around? I've also ordered a fan with a switch I wish that would help.


I'd honestly just wait for the new (used) part to arrive. Epoxy is notorious for failing in cooling system repairs. The hot coolant seeps between the base material and the epoxy and the pressure blows it out. You may be lucky, but it you're not, at best you'll likely seize a piston, but worse case scenario is a totalled motor and you laying in a ditch at the side of the road.

I speak from experience.
