Ok I used the search and couldn't find my answer. I changed my valve cover gasket on my 1990 Eagle Talon TSi because it was leaking and found there were a few of the outer perimeter bolts stripped out.
My question is is there a special fix for this or do I need to just heli-coil them? Any idea on what size heli-coil these take? (I could look it up but if someone knows the thread size offhand that helps)
I noticed when I removed the outer perimeter bolts I had a few longer than others, are they supposed to all be the same length and I had some backyard mechanic throw some bolts in to work? Or are they varied in length depending on placement?
Any input is appreciated...
Thanks in advance
