Cheap fix for a cracked windshield water reservoir crack?

I have a crack at the top the windshield water reservoir. I checked and to replace that would be about $110 ( $50 parts and $60 labor)... I was wondering if there is any glue which can be used to fix the crack. Its at the top and water can be filled upto 90% of tank. Beyond that the water starts leaking as it flows out of the crack..

I would think some kind of epoxy would work... But it might be easier just to pull one from a junkyard and replace it yourself- If it is like my 93 it is maybe 3 screws.

I used permatex ultra gray to seal a hole in an aftermarket washer tank.

This was 2 months ago, no problems since.


If the crack on a flat surface, take a piece of plastic gorilla glue it on, and seal with permatex.
