Hi,
I'm about to install a timesert in the head to fix a pulled out exhaust stud and was wondering if anyone had some tips on keeping the drill straight when drilling and tapping the hole? The engine is in the car and I will be on my back... Thank you, Dan |

If you follow the instructions above be careful, taps are very brittle and will
snap if over stressed. And if it does you will have one hell of a time getting the broken tap out. Easy does it, turn the tap in a little and then back out, in and out adding lube as you go. |
