Today I went to local pawn shop and this stihl ms 193t followed me home for a grand total of $63.
It is missing the oil cap and the spark plug threads are stripped.
I have used helicoils for many years as they are standard fare in outboard repair but I have never done a 10mm spark plug before with compression as high as what many good chainsaws have. Outboards have maybe 120 psi rebuilt with new wiseco pistons and head shaved flat and level or with low compression head gasket can be 60-80 psi.
Should I get the heli-coil kit or the Time-sert kit, anyone have any experience with either.
thanks much from an arborsite newby
