[cruza]

Does any one have a kit in this size? got a sump drain thread on its way out . happy to make a donation.....not a size I think I'd use often , be nice if i don't have to buy kit for one off use.

Anyone have this size kit laying about , before I go buy one next week? . Got a sick thread on sump, Not keen to refit plug , as it will prob fail when i least want it too.

WOW.... thats a fine metric & 14mm in a heli coil..never seen one in any kit..
Not to say there isn't one...
but if yer can't fined one
14x1.25 would be dam close to 9/16" UNF thread....

14 x 1.25 is a spark plug thread & a very common size in Recoil applications. The coils come in different lengths too, which a lot of people don't know. That said, most of the kits in shops will be the standard 1.5xD but the packs of replacement coils aren't expensive. 80% of the cost of the Recoil system is the oversized Tap.

Try an engine reconditioning shop, they should have them. Used to fit heaps of them in a previous life.

That will teach you for using the 6 foot 3/4in breaker bar for tightening the sump bung!!

Not sure if its original sump plug , only engages half avail sump thread by looks, never been nice to tighten since i got it. Decided to fix it before it does fail. Has hex head, so only use small allen key:bleh:

Went out and brought helicoil kit today. dropped bike on its side and did in place. Mint result , very positive when tightening up. So drop me a line if ya need a dr sump done and close to chch. :msn-wink:
