Picked up a FRST not too long ago, changed the rocker cover and one felt soft as I took it out. Tightened it all up and it's threaded

Had to be the one right under the throttle body too

Do people usually just helicoil? thinking to re-tap it but not sure on torque settings etc.

the rocker cover shouldnt be done up tight!! just a slip nip does it for me

Didn't over tighten it, that bolt felt loose coming out...

Just whack a 6mm Helicoil in, will never strip again.

I always change the threads on the exhaust port side to helicoils, they are indestructable!
