Today I have been a complete idiot and buggered up one of the exhaust manifold threads for the stud. I attempted to helicoil it and made a right pigs ear of it. I have helicoiled in the past and found it relatively easy so I don’t know what went wrong. I do know however that is now beyond a repair by yours truly so the block will have to come off and a trip to a professional engineering workshop is needed together with the embarrassment of telling them what I had done.
