1 Position the fixture plate (3) with the bushing (1)
installed over the cylinder head bolt hole to be
repaired (4).
2 Loosely install the fixture plate bolts (2) into the remaining cylinder head bolt holes.
Figure 6A1 – 499
3 Position the alignment pin (1) through the bushing and into the cylinder head bolt hole.
4 W ith the alignment pin in the desired cylinder head bolt hole, tighten the fixture retaining bolts (2).
5 Remove the alignment pin.
Figure 6A1 – 500
NOTE
During the drilling process, repeatedly remove
the drill and clean swarf from the hole and the
flutes of the drill.
6 Drill the hole until the stop collar contacts the top of the drill bushing.

NOTE
All swarf must be removed from the drilled hole
prior to tapping.
Safety glasses must be worn when using
compressed air.
7 Using compressed air, clean out any swarf.
Figure 6A1 – 502
CAUTION
Do not remove the fixture plate during the
machining and installation processes of the
insert.
NOTE
• During the tapping process, repeatedly
remove the tap and clean swarf from the
hole and the flutes of the tap.
• Ensure the tap has created full threads at
least to the depth equal to the insert length.
8 Using a suitable tapping wrench, tap the threads of the drilled hole by hand only.
Figure 6A1 – 503
9 In order to tap the new threads for the insert to the correct depth, rotate the tap into the cylinder head
bolt hole until the mark (1) on the tap aligns with the
top of the drill bushing (2).

NOTE
Remove the fixture plate prior to installing the
insert with the installer tool.
10 Remove the bushing (1) and fixture plate bolts (2) from the cylinder block (4) and remove the fixture
plate (3).

NOTE
All swarf must be removed from the tapped hole
prior to insert installation.
Safety glasses must be worn when using
compressed air.
11 Using compressed air, clean out any swarf.

NOTE
Do not allow oil or other foreign material to
contact the outside diameter (OD) of the insert.
14 Lubricate the threads of the driver installation tool (2) with the driver oil (1).
Figure 6A1 – 509
15 Install the insert (2) onto the driver installation tool (1).

16 Apply thread lock sealant (1) such as Loctite 277® or
equivalent to the insert OD threads (2).
Figure 6A1 – 511
17 Install the insert and installation driver (1) into the tapped hole by hand only.
18 Start the insert into the threaded hole.
CAUTION
If the insert will not thread down until the
flange contacts the counter-bored surface,
remove the insert immediately with a screw
extracting tool and inspect the tapped hole
for any remaining swarf and/or incorrect
tapping.
19 Install the insert until the flange of the insert contacts the counter-bored surface.
NOTE
The driver installation tool will tighten up before
cutting completely through the insert. This is
acceptable. The threads at the bottom of the
insert are being formed and the insert is
mechanically locking the insert into the base
material threads.
20 Continue to rotate the driver installation tool through the insert.
Figure 6A1 – 512
21 In order to completely form the new threads in the insert, rotate the driver installation tool through the
insert until the mark on the driver installation tool (1)
aligns with the surface of the engine block deck (2).
22 Inspect the insert for correct installation into the tapped hole.
