SUMP HELiCOIL - Piggy - 05-02-2014

Hi all...

its service time and I just remembered how buggered the sump plug thread is in the 2.1s sump.

it holds, but not sure it will take another in/out.

I'm struggling to find another sump...so has anyone got a little helicoil kit for the sump plug?? I dont fancy forking out on a £50 helicoil universal kit for one sump bolt Sad

Have a look on ebay, you can get a kit with a new tap and sump plug to suit, had to do it on dad's astra before

RE: SUMP HELiCOIL - Piggy - 05-02-2014

I dont have such workshops round here...
And ebay I cant find anything to suit other than a full kit as mentioned

course you do, you just haven't found them!


RE: SUMP HELiCOIL - Seb_Ryan - 05-02-2014

Piggy look at eBay, pretty sure it was under £10


RE: SUMP HELiCOIL - Slam Wagon - 05-02-2014

Ebay and search for the tread size helicoil kit. Will be alot cheaper than one branded for doing sumps. Theyre about £10 as said.
