++ TIME-SERT Threaded inserts for stripped threads, threaded inserts, thread repair stripped sparkplug's, Ford sparkplug blowouts, threaded inserts threaded, repair stripped threads, stripped threads, inserts threaded inserts, Ford spark plug repair,
A lot of usefull information on here about repairing spark plug threads. The repair kits are a little costly, but they are the best I have found.
Whatever you do, make sure you use an aluminun insert. You can not use steel on an aluminun head.

I would think a steel insert installed in an aluminum head would have an adverse affect on the spark plug's efficiency. All the kits/inserts I have ever purchased from Timesert have been aluminum, not to mention that is what they always recommended to me.

that may be true , I'm just saying , the shop I worked at had a motorcraft kit.They did FHP cars in Clearwater. they did so many they bought this kit and it had all steel threads. I thought it was a pretty nice set , but it does make sense to have aluminum

They do make nice kits.....expensive.....but nice. It hurt a little when I bought the first one, but now all I have to do is purchase the inserts, which aren't bad at all.
