Major Farmall H Work!! Help!!!

Posted by Scott L Swanson on January 10, 2001 at 09:42:33 from (209.180.31.9):

Two of the manifold bolts in my H head are rusted to the point of not holding. Somebody mentioned the Helicoil word. Will anybody out there offer me some advice on how to go about proceding with this scary task? Information on Helicoil sizes, tap sizes, and other helpful tidbits will be greatly appreciated and adopted as law. Can I tap and re-thread cast iron? What are my options?
Will threaded inserts hold in the hostile hot environment?

Thank you everyone. We all appreciate the advice you give us. The end result is Farmalls everywhere, where they belong.

Scott
