Great vid !! Thank you!!

Martín Carrillo says:

Will missing one of those bolts cause a miss fire?

Jason Sayre says:

Will this work with the 2012 durango w the hemi? I stripped all 4 holes in the intake manifold

Diego Gzz says:

Is there a need to tap and die for the threads or is the drill bit good enough? Also, If in any case the hole gets stripped again what would be the best solution? Go for a bigger sized bolt or helicoil?

cesar urrutia says:

If you make new threads and you have to remove the intake again, will the bolts retightened?

Carlos Moore says:

Worked great on my 2015 chrysler 300 s. Saved me $600 thanks.

Kid Car Critic says:

mine has a misfire on cyl 2. has a slight mis at idle and in reverse. did the coil and plug and is still the same but the 2 bolts on top of cyl 2 are both stripped. can this be causing my misfire? it does not make any ticking or tapping noises the engine sounds nice and healthy. I highly doubt its a head/compression issue

Scott Roessler says:

Is this method the same for my Jeep jk ‘15

Atanasio Bustos says:

What about when the head of the screw breaks off and the rest is inside the hole? I've tried using a reverse drill but no luck so far and I don't want to go further before something else breaks off…

Dominic Chigs says:

Do I put in new rethread or not.

Marauder 302 says:

Mine stripped at the aluminum part of the engine block

Gmn Dale says:

Couldn't find 7/32 washer

Gmn Dale says:

Where did you get the 7/32 washers from

JudoMane says:

Hey Gage can you explain on the washer size better because I cant for the life of me find a 7/32 washer to fit this lagscrew like the ones you're holding in this video. Are you sure the washers aren't 1/4"?
