hello everyone, alright, so basically, i need to tap a threaded hole for one of the front motor mount bolts. when i screw it in, it goes to the end and then when i try to tighten it, it keeps on spinning off nothing. it on a 2001 prelude by the way. the wrench size used to tighten/untighten the bolt is size 14, but i dont know how big the screw part actually is so i dont know how big of a tapper i should get. providing me with the size of the screw part of the bolt would be prefect, but if you have any other recommend. let me know.

 

well if its stripped your going to have to drill it out a little bigger and cut all new threads. re-tapping it with the same size will no do anything. you will be left with the exact same problem. so your going to need a drill bit, tap and a new bolt that are all one sizer bigger. everything your going to need is at home depot/lowes.
