Hi all
The threads out came with the drain plug upon removal from the trans on my 2001 Sportman 500. What experience do folks have with Timesert, helicoil inserts vs simply tapping to the next size. Thinking the PO used some kind of thread lock.
Thread size is 3/16-18. The case is thin and because of that I'm reluctant to use a Time-Sert or heli coil as the insert is quite a bit longer than case thickness. Thanks in advance.
