Hey Guys,
So yesterday my spark plug in cylinder 3 decided to blow out of the head, after inspection the thread inside the head is gone. What would now be the best option?
I was thinking helicoil but seems like a lot of people on here have said not to because of the high compression? The other option I saw on here was timesert? Can anyone give me some advice, I'm not 100% sure if I would trust myself to repair the thread. How easy would it be to do? Also places would need the cylinder head to be completely off for them to fix it wouldn't they?
I live in Heathrow area London so if anyone here knows someone that could do it at a reasonable price could you please let me know
Cheers guys![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
