Whoever had the car (95 DX) before me stripped on of the plugs. I just put a turbo on it and decided nows the best time to deal with the plug. Before i get pissed off and tear somthin up i thaught i'd do the right thing this time and ask for help first. Anything other than taking it to a machine shop?

 

If your just a weekend mechanic, then just bite the bullet and take to a shop. Do your homework though, shop around and find a good deal.

Good luck, and someone else on here may have some magic up their sleeve, so wait for a few more replies. LOL

 

You can take the head off yourself and then take it to a shop to have the holes repaired, or if it has a lot of miles on it trade it in for a rebuilt head. Use anti-seize on your plugs so it doesn't happen again.

 

No tricks? Like not having to take the head off?

 

pop in a heli-coil i think thats how their spelled

 

youll still need to take off the head. but while your at it just buy a fresh rebuilt head and you dont have to worry

 

I have a d16y8 head, but can't decide if it's worth the trouble?
