Hi All,

I am putting my engine back together. One of the screws at the top timing cover, is held in by the the front engine plate being threaded. Right behind that screw is the mounting bracket for the alternator.

Well, the threads in the engine plate are to stripped to hold the screw, and I can't put a nut on the backside of the plate as the bracket does not allow room for one.

Has anyone else run into this problem?  Did you find a solution?

I have thought about using JB Weld, but I am not sure it is the best solution.

Thanks,
Roger Elliott
