Stripped out oil hole in block

Post by **nismodave** » Thu Jul 17, 2003 4:01 pm

I sripped out the oil hole in block. It runs to my turbo. The motor is an sr20det.....therefore it is an aluminum block.

Any suggestions mechanics?

The motor is in car, but I have good access to the hole.

Run to nappa and get a tapping kit and a fitting. The fitting should have thread on one side where you can use it to screw into the block. The other end of the fitting should be smooth or have some sort of jagged edge to cling to a rubber hose. Tap the stripped out hole, screw in the fitting, put in rubber hose (preferably heater hose). Just a suggestion.
