My engine blew the spark plug out of one of the heads. Anyone else have this problem? Its the same head that is used on the RCS140.
Anyone know where I can get a helicoil installed for a 10 mm spark plug?

PEP BOYS automotive stores sells the heli coils.

I was hoping to find someone that had the tools to do this. I don't like to buy them and never use them again.
A friend is going to call C.F.Lee but I don't think he does 10 mm.

An automotive mechanic in your area should have what you need and be able to help you out for a nominal fee.

any good machine shop -also I am sure C Lee does these -
typical cost for job is $20.00- sometimes for free- depending on who the guy is doing it - very simple .

Thanks for your replies. RCS says they have a new head for $30. I expect a heli coil would cost that much

I went through this as my RCS blew out the plug, went to a auto parts store and they will not usually sell just one 10mm heli coil but the box of heli coils which contain 6 or so, and the full kit they want $30-$50 depending on the parts store. If you need one, for the price of postage its yours, as I have 6 and will never use them in 3 lifetimes.

C. Lee is not set up to do a 10 mm plug. I expect he will be if enough people ask him for it,though
