I suppose this could be used to fix a tractor with stripped plug threads too. It was fairly simple.
The kit came iwth the tap, 3 inserts, and a punch. The tap went on the end of a 3/8" drive.
I greased it up real well to catch the shavings.
It worked out pretty well.
Went in 3/4 the first time, then cleaned it best I could before repeating. Definitely fill the recessed parts with grease to catch as much as you can.
Couple pieces of shavings got down in there though.
Pair of forceps with a paper towel down in there cleaned things up pretty well.
Harbor freight 99 cent socket holder was perfect. Took the holders off and was left with the curved base, which I wrapped in a paper towel and pushed down to clean the edges best I could.
Put on the medium insert before the main insert so it wouldn't thread all the way onto the plug. I backed out regularly to check my depth and this made it easier.
Don't forget the RTV. Used the punch to flare the outside perforations into the sidewall to keep it from going anywhere.
RTV is 24 hr to cure, should be ready around 6pm tonight.

In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
