HELP QUICK!!!!! I stripped the head trying to change my plugs.....
I know, I know.......must be the dumbest thing I've ever done. After hearing all the horror stories of this happening to people, I've been SOO careful when changing spark plugs. I honestly don't see how this happened the way it did, but now I need to deal with it.
Is there a way to have someone Helicoil the head without having to take it off the engine? I know having the head off is major bucks, and I really don't have the cash right now between tuition and everything else. Thanks for understanding guys..........This wouldn't be such a big deal if I didn't have two tests before I'm supposed to leave for a road trip on Friday.... arg!

helicoiling would prolly be your easiest route...i had some accel wires on mine, and the bushing broke off down on the plug...needless to say i will never buy those again!
