Turned up a fancy washer, big enough in diameter to span the damage to the surface of the crankcase and with a recess to take to protruding Helicoil. Cut down a bolt to the correct length - several trial fittings to make absolutely sure it was as long as possible without bearing down on the camshaft, then on the last fitting it came out with the Helicoil wrapped around it!

New Helicoils on order along with a fitting handle which I will cut up and extend to clear the block. Rad coming out tomorrow. All good fun I suppose.

Hi Peter

Oh dear, Sorry, looks like it was a bad idea.

Apologies

Howard
