Spark Plug Tap
I got one of the spark plugs cross threaded on Liz's old Saturn. So I had to make a tool to chase the threads.
I bought a 14 X 1.25 MM tap and got a piece of 1/2 inch steel tubing.
The shank of the tap measured .430 inches so I drilled out the tubing to 7/16 inch diameter. I then put in a cross hole for a handle and super glued the tap into the end.
Tomorrow night I will chase out the thread and check the compression.
