Re: [DMCForum] Heli coil how to

This has been my experience.  None of the local chains had 7mm kits -- not
even NAPA.  I looked in the yellow pages and found an industrial place
that
had a kit.  It cost around $50 and had 10 coils.  The counter guy gave me
an
extra 10 cuz I bought a few hundred nuts (for the trailing arm bolts).

This was for a stripped out intake manifold.  The hole was about twice as
deep as the coil, so I used two in series.  It was a pain.  When I tried
to
use red loc-tite on the first coil, it kept binding before it got all the
way in.  I ruined 3 or 4 coils before I gave up using the loc-tite.  I
used
loc-tite on the top coil and it worked fine.  The coils are a stainless
steel alloy.  Since stainless doesn't get along well with aluminum, I
figured that they would seize together eventually anyway.  So no worry
about
having it ever back out.
