Re: Ah crap cross-threaded spark plug hole D16Z6
If its partially stripped and you run a chaser down it you will run the risk of blowing the plug out of the cylinder. I would remove the head and do it right.

heli coil works fine on plug holes i`ve had two different head that has heli coil on them.

On topic: Because the insert provides an enlarged bearing area, the restored fastening is stronger than the original. It is also more durable, since the stainless steel thread is generally tougher than the original material. Precision inserts are corrosion resistant and their 22-microinch or better surface finish provides a smooth-running, wear-resistant fastening. |
