[s-cars] Spark plug threads: Back tap from Starr Products

[Fred Munro]

Interesting tool, Dave. It's a thread chaser and the intent is to reform the
damaged threads in the head. Might work if there is enough good metal left -
probably worth a try, but you'd have to make a careful assessment of the
result to determine if the plug is going to stay in the head. Be a bummer to
toast another coil pack.

Remember, UrS guys & gals - check your spark plug torque when you change
your oil (says I remembering I didn't do that last oil change)

S-gruppees:  Although I have a good photographic memory, sometimes the
"photos" are just in a big ole "shoebox" (or so it seems).  Dan Slagle
emailed me (and Konstantine) because he thought the photo was in the
Dec. or Jan. issue of European Car.  (BING!!).  It was January.  On page
124. "Tool of the Month".  The link to the Starr Priducts website is
give below.

Good luck, Konstantine!!  HTH
