Pro Fix Stripped Threads The way I have always done stripped bolt holes is to install a HeliCoil. It is a thread replacement device that you drill out and tap the hole for the Helicoil to be installed. This lets you use the original size bolt. You can pick up a kit that will contain the Coil, Drill bit and tap. They are available at most Auto parts stores. If unsure what size you need take a bolt with you and match up. The link below is a site that gives good info on use and installation http://www.repairengineering.com/helicoil.html

This past sunday I was riding my bike home from my dad's and I had the front right spark plug blow out of the cylinder. After talking to squidley, he said that we can heli coil it. So I went in search of info of what I need to do... and I came across a product called Time-Sert. I wanted to find out if anyone here has had experience with this product and what their opinions are compared to HeliCoil.
