Buy 125' of 2-1/2" PVC pipe. Slip a cap on the end with some grease on the joint of the cap to pipe. Open the other well head to minimize pressure. Have the expandible rubber plug (mentioned) at hand.
Push the pipe , length by length down the casing with couplings at every connection glued as it is pushed down. When it hits bottom, Begin filling it with sackrete posthole mix concrete (small aggrigate). Use a funnel, and mix enough to fill the casing (roughly 8 cubic feet) (check this number!) Concrete weighs more than water, and when the fill pipe is full, begin pulling it out. The cap will come off, and concrete will begin displacing the water. Pull up 1/2 length of pipe at a time, and cut it off. Then refill the now partially empty fill pipe. You may need to cut shorter lengths off of the fill pipe to keep filling it at a rate that continually keeps the fill pipe near full. Water will be displaced up and out of the well as the concrete enters, that is a good thing. When the concrete gets near the top, Pull the remaining fill pipe, and put in the plug and expand it.
I believe that it is worth the bucks (Canadian)to try it. Putting concrete directly down the well washes the cement out of the aggrigate and makes porosity that will not work, this deposits real full strength mix to the place it will stay. Good luck, No guarantees, JimN
