 Timeserts?
Anyone know of a local supplier for timeserts?
I have a stripped exhaust stud on one of the heads of my 72 bus.
Have tried a helicoil and it keeps coming back out. Has something to do I think with the heat and the expansion of the coil compared to the head.

C Mail order, usually from an aircooled site. Haven't ordered any in a while though, I've been lucky.

 Re: Timeserts?
If you are able to find a Wurth distributor , they seem to be the major ones in Canada for distributing the Time-sert. Probably easier to just order them online.
