I know where this is going.......................:(
Just got a 1988 2.8 litre with aluminum heads and wanted to see what the plugs looked like(mistake), the last one on the left(?) cylinder head looked easy to get. Put the socket ect. on it and went to loosen the plug. It was already loose! Plug didn't look bad soooo I just figured install it and get a new set later.
You guessed it......won't tighten up. I don't have alot of experience with aluminum heads so any ideas how to repair this without costing me an arm, leg and first born??
I really don't want to take the heads off if it can be avoided.
I would appreciate any suggestions! Thanks.
