Default Stripped bolt in head..



http://www.acuraautomotivepart...ormal

#5 on the diagram is stripped.. the bolt keeps coming loose. which results in the engine ticking..

How can i fix this? The bolt is like a banjo bolt (hole in the middle) so if i repair the threads.. i would need a bigger bolt.. and where could i find a bigger bolt that type to fit?

Anyone else ever had this happen?

Any input is needed..!

I really doubt you are going to fix this, LS heads are cheap, probably less than the repair.
