Already got it done about an hour ago. I hadn’t done a helicoil before so I just wanted to be clear about it. You know,one person says this,another says that. Just want to be sure. Anyway it’s done and no leaks. Carb is also rebuilt and runs smooth again. Next task will be getting the IVR replaced for the gauges. And the speedometer cable.
Thanks to everyone here who offered their help. I learned a lot about helicoils,time sert,etc. Amazingly I’ve never stripped a bolt on my cars and had to use one before
