Thx bimmerbum! | how'd you get the plug out,..?? | | | 01-09-2009, 05:14 PM | #32 | Moderator Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Bouncing off the rev limiter in CT! Posts: 3,156 | You could try one of those www.timesert.com threaded inserts to repair it. If you use a LOT of locktite thread locker/sealant on the OD threads to hold the insert in (after totally degreasing it- use Acetone), it should work great. They are a forum sponsor too- their ad pops up on top every so often... | | | 01-09-2009, 06:23 PM | #33 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2008 Location: England Posts: 102 | I realy want one but i have only just found this thread ): Any chance i still could?
