Product Description: Thread Repair Tool

How to Use: 1. Identify the original thread size from the old sump plug. 2. Select the next size up tap. For example, if the original plug diameter is 12 mm, use a 13 mm tap. 3. Fill the flutes of the tap with clean axle/bearing grease. 4. Use an appropriate driver to screw the tap into the sump hole. 5. Once the tap has started to cut, continue to slowly cut the thread by rotating clockwise by ½ turn and back (anti-clockwise) a ¼ of a turn. This will help create a good, full thread. 6. Once the thread has been fully cut, remove the tap and clean. 7. Pour engine oil through the engine with the sump plug out to wash out any metal fragments that may have dropped into the engine. 8. Fit the appropriate new sump plug and copper sealing washer, and torque to the vehicle manufacturer's specification.

Attention: Taps must be well lubricated during use to ensure a quality thread is cut and the teeth do not bind. It is recommended to fill the flutes of the taps with grease to assist in both lubrication and the removal of metal fragments as the tap cuts the new thread. It is also recommended to wash out the sump to ensure all metal fragments have been removed. If there is any doubt that metal fragments may be present in the sump pan, the sump must be removed for cleaning. When running the engine, ensure there is enough ventilation and extraction of exhaust gases.
