Coil pack bolt threads stripped

[mattjones]

Came to put the bolts back into the coil pack today and I've stripped 2 of them.

Anyone got any idea how to fix this? Is it a case of drilling and tapping it to a bigger size?

I think they're M10 so would I get away with tapping to M12?

Any help would be great

Thanks

One of mine is stripped. Mechanic suggested helicoiling which I think is basically tapping a new thread as you said in your post. As long as youve got two good bolts holding it on though it wont go anywhere

M10/M12 are massive mate, I think you mean M6 with a 10mm head
