Re: Helicoil
Just ordered a 1/4-20 Helicoil set from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002SRE8Q/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Less expensive than McMaster-Carr.

Re: Helicoil
Make sure you get a complete kit with the proper size drill bit or buy/order the bit separately. Your local hardware store may not have the size you need.

Re: Helicoil
To make the heli coils stay in we put a lacquer paint on the threads being heli coiled. This adheres the heli coil to its threads. This is how we did heli coil inserts on the 155mm howitzers I built for the US ARMY. those are my babies in the sandbox.
I'm technically misunderstood at times i guess its been this way my whole life so why should it change now.

Re: Helicoil
Just purchased two Helicoil repair kits from Amazon. The 1/4-20 and the 10-24. Both for stripped out threads in my carb. Worked great. I already had the required drill bits for the initial tap, so didn't need to buy bits.
