That's what I mean, kind of spendy. You already have a new piston and ring, a new jug is only $15 more than that Heli-coil kit, or a Heli-Coil installed at a small engine shop would only cost about $10. When the cost of repair exceeds 50% of the new value I usually opt for replacement.
What is a jug? A cylinder? That might also be an option. Need to break in more though. Do you have any next day shipping options? I'm afraid it's gonna be hard to find a repair shop here in Miami. 10Mx1 is a not so standard size. I'll let you know tomorrow AM for the cylinder.
