Heli-coil kit for 3.4L oil pan to block bolts
Hi all,
Just curious if anyone has used heli-coils to repair stripped bolt holes on aluminum block for the 3.4L engine at the oil pan? I've got a couple that appear to be a bit stripped that I would like to fix for good.
I'm having difficulty identifying the exact size and thread of the OEM bolt, but here is the toyota part #90119-06727. I will attempt to track that info down from the local dealer tomorrow.
Does anyone have a specific kit they used with success in the past? Any tips on installation that you found useful?
Thanks!

As a machinist I highly recommend keensert over helicoil. Order from McMaster Carr in whatever size you need. Way stronger and rather than using helicoil tap uses standard tap.
