Today i was working a little fast and i didn't start the spark plug with my fingers enough, and stripped the first few threads in my head...
what is the best plan of action to fix it?
A)tap the hole (not sure what angle to put it on though)

B)plug the hole with a rag and sand the first few threads down until i get to the good ones.

C)take head off and tap from inside out (LOTS OF WORK!)

D)Keep trying, and possibly continue stripping threads.

is it extremely critical how close the end of the spark plug is inside the combustion chamber?

 

Holy crap!:o
Don;t do D !
I think C would be the best, although it's the most work.
They should construct spark plug threads to be softer the alluminum heads!

I am not ASE cert. or anything, but I would imagine the distance of the spark plug electrode is rather important for proper A/F burnage" or whatever you call it. It also should be threaded down there pretty good to hold up the the compression.
Goodluck

 

thanks i did it yesterday tho, i just tapped it with a 14mm sparkplug tap from Napa from the outside, worked like a charm.

 

i was gnona say tap down on it with the spark plug and push through the fucked up threads.

 

Damn!
you guys don't worry about the thread shavings falling into the combustion chamber?

 

i put an oil soaked rag in the chamber with some foreceps through the middle of the tap.
