Clio172 / Focus Ti X
My number 3 plug decided to blow out the head a while back, i managed to replace it and the threads seemed ok.
Just after that i had the beauty of cambelt failure hit me lol so got the head rebuilt and completely forgot all about number 3 plug or i would have got it seen to then.
Got it all up and running again with new valves, fitted new belts etc but it was misfiring slightly on number 3 cylinder. Decided to pull the plugs out and check them and surprise surprise number would no longer tighten up.
My question is, is it possible to repair the thread with the head still on the engine? Really dont want to take it back off.
