    Yes I did it to one of mine .... I used 2 part epoxy

    Its a choke pipe

    Clean it all up and and hold it in position with tape and then surround the join with epoxy

    I had to repair one on my Fizzer, used heat and solder actually, amazingly enough it worked - although I think the heat made it a press fit instead of the solar actually joining it haha
