Stripped block threads, rear block fitting
I took the two fittings off the block to install prelude fittings for a catch can. I decided to put the stock fittings back in cause I didnt have everything I needed. Anyways I screwed a fitting in, which twisted in quite easy crooked, and i couldnt see anything. Anyways realized i ****ed up, tool the fitting out, pieces of metal everywhere. The fitting screws in crooked no problem, but when i try to twist it in aligned, it just spins and wont thread in, didnt try too hard cause i dont have much room for my big hands.
Can someone please tell me if Im ****ed or not? If i can, i just want to plug this port up and forget about it, or possibly use my prelude fitting still. Hopefully the Block isnt ****ed. I think its 28mm
Thanks

Glad you fixed it but just for the record all the sensors and line fittings on the block are threaded in NPT (national Pipe Thread) this means as you tighten them they seal by a Tapered thread on the fitting/sensor
this is only for fittings and sensors on the block and with No other type of seal under them
