I noticed that the factory oil pressure switch was leaking on my 914. I removed it but the previous owner put it in crooked and stripped the threads in the case that the switch threads into. Can this be repaired with engine in car? What size drill, tap and insert do I need or is there another way to fix it? Thanx L
