Heli Coil Size for a Ka24e Sprocket?

[1997D21]

Hi ,
I just stripped the sprocket bolt in my 95 nissan pickup and was wondering if anyone could tell me the size helicoil kit i
should use and what size bolt i should put in after installing the kit?

thanks

What sprocket? Also, I think heli-coils return the threads to the original size (and original bolt size).

It's the upper timing chain sprocket and the bolt is 24mm

If the threads aren't fubared too badly, I would try retapping them with a tap and dye set before you resort to installing a heli coil. Might use some break-able locktite to be safe when you're done either way.
