Subject:      2.1 wbx case stripped!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

ok so heres the deal. a long time ago i stripped the case out at
the oil drain plug. no biggie, threw in a helicoil. now the heli
coil is working its way out and its moved enough to eat drain
plugs as i try to thread them in. any ideas on fixing this for
good? i really dont want to put another helicoil and have this
happen again in a few months. i do have access to a lift and some
limited air tools btw
