Hi , I had a engine bolt that was loose it was a Stripped out head not the bolt and I made a mistake of letting a hack mechanic help and he used JB Weld Tight net and it got loose just sucked all the JB well right through the head of the engine, the 3rd cylinder, valve and the piston etc. you can imagine the damage.

This is clearly a troll post. Nobody in their right mind would even consider trying to save that engine.
