[QUOTE="robbieisurfriend, post: 1250408, member: 77317"] Alright guys I will just butt out because I obviously know nothing. I understand you would be adding air from the top while tapping on the bottom. BUT, compressed air goes in streams, streams which blow chips AROUND. When the chip covered tap breaks through the hole will be clogged by the tap correct? The stream of air would then blow the chips off of the tap and around your case. You could in theory seal your air source at the filler hole and SLOWLY pressurize the case but I highly doubt it would help much. I doubt you could get enough chips in there to hurt anything if you tried. Pour some oil through it before you put the bolt back in. I agree ol89, helicoils are great and I have put in hundreds myself. I have also had problems with them on bolts that need alot of torque or are frequently removed. You can always pull them out, retap, and put a new one in though. [/QUOTE]
