Guys
Got back from storing my beloved and the plugs were seized. I got three out but the last one stripped the thread. I've read that I can possibly helicoil a spark plug but realise that on our cars they are pretty deep and inaccessible. Has anyone tried it on the car?
Do you think its possible?
If not I guess its a recon head ?
thanks in advance guys.
