So like... I have a cross-threaded spark plug - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Fucking great.

i take out my #2 to check it, looks fine, i put her back in. I then realize that the plug's at an angle and I've already tightened it. I just stare at it, hoping that just wishing it away will correct my mistake.

I'm not sure if it's always been like that, or if I had just done it now, or whatever. It doesn't matter.

Basically I can either get a new head, helicoil 'save a thread' (for spark plugs), or fuck it and get a dohc (this is on a sohc).

suggestions?
