You must have the tap (part# 5716) to cut the threads for this helicoil to work.
You should have a strong vacuum to suck the shavings out as you tap, so debris doesn't fall in the cylinder.
You should also have some green loctite to use when installing this kind of helicoil or it WILL come out EVERY time you unscrew your plug.
