This guy lives in Never Never land. Wish I could find a 10 buck helicoil kit. Especially one in 1/4-32 that interchanges with a metric thread.

Can you believe what he wrote?? metric and Sae threads interchangable?? 10 bucks for a helicoil kit??? Don't go anywhere but NAPA?? You must go to a speciallty shop and I still haven't found one that carries a 1/4-32 helicoil kit let alone a tap and DIE (Dye?) for one. The only place I have found that size tap was from harry Higley.

An Enya #3 is not a long reach plug. It is 4 MM. A Long reach plug is 5 MM and a short rech is 3MM. The japanese don't complicate anything. They make one plug reach for all their two cycle engines. What's wrong with using an Enya plug in a 4 cycle engine. That's what Enya recommends for use in their 4 cyc;les. It's the only plug I use in any of my glow engines. learned that trick while living and flying in Sasebo, Japan.

Whoops, was a bit off on the plug reach. Shorts are 3.5MM and longs are 5.5mm. Enya's are 4.5MM

Remarkably McMaster has dis-continued the inserts. However I do in fact have some left. FWIW I just did a moki head two weeks ago.[>:]

Just got a reply from their Rep in the Northwest. Not a Standard, not in catalog and if they did have one it would be very expensive

Is Clarence Lee still in the business of fixing stripped glo plugs? I do not have my first issue yet and need the address, payment info and anything else necessary to help get me back up and running. THanks
