about 3 years back I tore a motor down to rebuild my rebuild.... (long story)
anyways, I only have myself to blame today I started bolting on the externals and tin found out that the CHT hole is stripped. motor is assembled and I really don't want to pull the head at this point for welding...... how do folks feel about a time sert or a heli coil in this application. I think I happen to have a heli-coil in the right size... but if I had to buy a time-sert to make it conduct the heat into the sensor I would do it. what do folk think? John, how would you tackle this repair? thanks in advance everyone. brant |

I just looked on the web, and I don't think Helicoil makes a 10mm x 1 insert. Timesert is gonna be the way to go. I have the kit. PM me and maybe we can work something out.
