Fixing cracked plastic

Grr !! My favorite job working on appliances! yesterday my wife
said something is wrong with the washing machine, it wont spin!
so out to the garage it went ,well it will be a easy fix when
part stores open. The drive coupling broke in between the
transmission and motor, but the other trouble I noticed was
there is a plastic bleach dispenser that has a crack in it! any
Ideas on how to glue it so it wont leak all over the floor . Its
not something that you can easily replace because its attached
to other parts of washing machine tub and the cost wouldn't be
worth it .

I have had success in the past with a soldering iron and bits of
plastic as a filler to weld the plastic together, but it is
rather messy and ends up very unsightly and never a finished
product.

Thx for the Ideas I ended up trying that spray you see on tv
for fixing leaks in gutters and making a boat out of a screen
door . What sold me was a guy said he used it to seal a leak in
his window washer fluid bottle on his car and its still holding
(just by coating the outside ) time will tell
