Timeserts

[PaulC]

Have to repair several stripped cylinder head cover bolt holes. Was gonna try HeliCoils but after more research found that they don't have a very good reputation for permanent repairs. So I'm planning on trying Timeserts. Never done them before. Motor is in the car. Any info / advice much appreciated. Thanks

Yes, I'm planning on buying a kit and I know about the different sizes. Aside from keeping it straight, anything I should watch out for?
