JB weld is more for like home appliance repair (refridge, oven, A/C registers, etc. Trust me, I used to work at a hardware store and my manager suggested JB weld to fix a hole in this guy's intake manifold for his vintage roadster, (yes my manager wasn't the brightest crayon in the box to say the least). Turns out the guy's manifold completley warped somehow and left him stranded out the middle of nowhere for hours on end. Cost him over 800 bucks for a new custom manifold. You're better off not taking the risk.

No
Like donnabellekc's hubby said, it won't hold the heat or pressure. And it's very brittle where it attaches to other compounds (aluminum, steel, magnesium).

Give it up and buy a new piston...........

How might one go about getting a tune up on a 2005 Zuma?

If you are talking about a piston in an internal combustion engine, no, I wouldn't recommend it. The temperatures and pressures ar too high for JBweld.

We are buying my dad a Harley Sportster for his B-day, Which one is best!?

If it is on the top (combustion area), - it will not last, because "JB" is burnable, and the heat will get it in a hurry! If the piston is good otherwise, take it to a welding shop and have them heliarc it with aluminum. Remove the rings very carefully, and lay them out so that you can get them back on just the way they came off........ After you get the piston back home, "dress it off carefully with a file, and make sure no "slag" remains in the "ring lands", - then you can put on the rings and re-assemble. Don't try to smooth the weld down unless you have a really good welding job, - which has it well "flowed in" around the bottom of the damaged area, - if you clean it off really smooth,you may make it so thin, - that it will burn out next to the "old hole"! Be sure though that you have enough off so that it doesn't hit on the head, or valves when engine turns over! This works fine for a mororcycle or small engine, but if it is a car engine, save yourself a lot of trouble, -- just buy a new piston (unless it is a rare engine that no parts are available for!) The repaired piston will weigh more than the others, and will throw the engine out of balance! This produces "harmonics" that can damage engine or in some cases - if ran at a certian rpm steadily, it may disassemble itself!
