Hi, I was hoping someone may be able to help, recently I have had major problems with my boiler which is a Worcester 28si. At first I was losing pressure very slowly so done all the usual things checked for leeks, bled radiators and so forth...............................After exhausting all other easy non-professional fixes, I decided to check the outside pressure relief pipe (which I discovered was all clogged with mud/dirt, I have dogs who like to dig, the little S&*ts). So after clearing away said mud/dirt i have noticed that there is a crack/split in the pipe. Now that I have cleared it and exposed the split pressure loss on the boiler is instant.
So after that long winded explanation, I would like to know if there is a temporary fix for the split in the pipe. The gap is too small to fit a clamp. Is there anything else I can use that can seal the split that would withstand the water pressure and heat.
I am not a professional by any matter of means, so if anyone out there is kind enough to give advice please put it in absolute easy to understand words.
