Re: [T3] head stud strippin


I'm only catching up with this now, but I feel I have to contribute my
experience:
I had a head overheat, and when reassembling I pulled a case saver on each
side.
2K km later I had to disassemble my engine again to fix this as two more
case savers had pulled and "poping" was heard.
Lesson, Don't put this off unless you enjoy rebuilding engines as much as I
do :>)

> Jim- full rebuild?  can I just drop the engine and take the heads off and
put in a helicoil?  What exactly are the case-savers?  And the case-savers
require the full rebuild right?
