very happy with the replacement

Just what the doctor ordered. had one of these years ago and loaned it to a friend. It never made it back home. very happy with the replacement.

Superior!

Worked like a well behaved golden retriever.

He he he

Ofcorse it takes some work but it'll be fixed in no time. And aluminum isn't magnetic so take it apart first...

Works! I I was surprised!

I used this to rethread a sparkplug hole on a Honda Clone (predator) 212cc motor. At first, its a lot of work! It may seem like its not work, and stripping the first 10 threads on the tap. On my motor, the spark plug hole was slightly tapered so you must cut through all that first to make it even. Just when your about to give up, Keep going! eventually it will work! Took me over an hour and some muscle! Worked out well !!! cheap fix! use a Red Locktite to seal it!

May be a great product but do not know yet

Tools look fine ,however we have not used them yet.

Quick and easy to use, instructions could use help but a great fix.

This kit makes a strong repair without removing the head. You must rotate rhe crank shaft to make sure no ports/valves are open them simply tap the new threads with the included tap, choose the proper depth of insert, (4 depths included in the kit), then coat the insert outer threads with high temp thread locker then screw it firmly into the newly tapped head. It helps to use a good spark plug to properly torque the insert in place. You can use compressed air and a shop vac with a drinking straw attached to the suction hose, adapted down to staw size to remove any aluminum that fall inside, (the reason you must insure all ports/valves are closed). Allow the thread locker to dry then install a new plug and torque to spec, much less than a cast iron head.

Worked well for me

Worked well for me, you just need to remember to have the cylinder that your working on at TDC (top dead center) so all the valves for that cylinder are closed (so no metal shavings get in the valve openings). Also make sure and put grease on the tap to help catch any metal shaving (rather than have them drop into the cylinder. Moreover, make sure you back the tap out every ½ turn to every whole turn as to clean the metal shavings from the tap and to re-grease it. I myself actually used an impact gun set to low speed to run the tap though (you may want to do it by hand with a ratchet). However, either way, just take your time and you shouldn’t have any problems using this product.
