I should have said I am talking about the air cleaner bolts. The holes in the carbs for them have never been threaded.

Hi,

I have had the air cleaners off my car recently and I am wondering, has any one come up with a good solution for the bolts on the carbs/

Right now, there are nuts on both ends of a stud, so I have to have a wrench behind the carbs holding the nuts while I am taking them off the front.

It seems like there must be a solution like using helicoil. Has anyone done that?

Thanks,
Roger Elliott
