perpendicularity between the threaded hole and the gasket surface - find a

touch the gasket surface with a mill to square. (You might give Clarence a call
also - unusual that he would not catch this.)</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The head & cylinder are all one part on the
YS91AC. I was unable to remove the liner when the head was sent out for the
helicoil. It is stuck pretty good. I can see a cascade of problems if I try to
replace that part alone. Considering the price of a new engine I am reluctant
to spend a lot on this one!</FONT></DIV>

buy a replacement head because that is the only item you need. In the
future, if you have a stripped glow plug thread in the head then simply
replace the head and avoid this kind of problem. The heli coil method
works, but it is better in my opinion to have a new head. A new head
really doesn’t cost that much. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
