Re: Cross Threaded Spark Plug Hole

Unfortunately, I don't think it's that simple. You may already have bits of thread (metal) in the cylinder, that could bugger the piston rings, & a thread chaser may only add to the problem. You'll probably need to remove the cylinder head to assess damage & carry out a repair.

Is there anyone with more "hands on" knowledge who can come in at this point? :sad:
