captainkettel Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Can I get some more info on "timeserts"? Anyone tell me where I can find a kit? How about costs and whether they did the trick for you. Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Wurst carries them,that's who I got mine from. Expensive,yes,but excellent.You'll not want a heli-coil again for exhaust studs,etc. where you may have to remove the stud/bolt in the future for repairs,etc.. Cost was borderline "no friggin way",I think I paid like $63 for a set plus shipping.Comes with a drill bit,tap,chamfer bit,insert tool and I think 5 inserts when you order the size for exhaust studs. Pay more,but you get the best results.My experienced opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthWet Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Paul, he is looking to repair EA71 head-stud holes. IIRC, Timeserts have been used for this, yes? I think calebz said that he had a kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthWet Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Sorry Paul, not trying to beat you up for information not in evidence... just trying to provide a little more background to the first person from whom I heard about Timeserts. He had talked about the stripped stud hole in another thread. I figured that you would know for sure if the right Timesert kit was available.

No sweat,but I only click on about 5% of the posts out there these days. Pat,I think I've held your tools hostage long enough.Sorry about that.I'll get them going either later this week or early next week.
