dumb old John.... installed a new head gasket on a Kohler 20 hp command
motor... got it all put back together... all the baffles and sheet metal in
place... tried to screw in the adapter for the compression gauge and stripped
the dang spark plug hole threads...

I've never tried this before... so is it worth it  to go buy all the heli coil
install stuff or just take it somewhere and let a professional do it in half
the time for half the money ???

opinions ??

I'm sarcastic... what's your superpower ?
