Re: Striped Threads in aluminum housing

I used a piece of tape to catch under the hole. I’ll have the transmission flushed sometime, but I’m not too worried about it now. Look at all that metal shaving. I used some thread lock when installing the coils yesterday. I still have to put the top back on. I’m still unsure about this and don’t want to run the coils through, not in a hurry, so I’m o.k. with waiting for threadlock to cure. I did find an interesting video about thread repair. I had looked at time-certs since there is no pin to break off, but couldn’t locate any locally.
