Review on 🔧 M14X1.25 REPAIR KIT: An Essential Solution for Fast and Easy Repairs by Trey Angus

This kit helped me repair a Craftsman lawn mower I bought in 2013. I did a little research and linked to a YouTube video. The tap and reamer appear to be sturdy/good materials/craftsmanship. I recommend using some kind of cutting oil (type 3 in 1) and some patience when tapping on the cylinder head. Since the thread you are cutting is quite large, I would cut 3/4 to 1 threads at a time and reverse the tap to clear the shavings, re-oil the tap, replace and tap another 3/4 to 1 thread . . I repeated this process several times until I got the right length. I then used a shop vacuum on the cylinder head spark plug hole to remove any shavings. I applied high temp Loctite to the insert. Screwing in the insert was not easy. I used a spark plug to help with this. After the embed was installed, I used the advanced tool as directed. I waited 24 hours for the Loctite to set and put a new spark plug in the engine. I was able to make this repair without removing the motor or head from the mower. The lawn mower started on the first pull, after the repair I have used it about 3 times with no obvious problems. I know I have avoided costly shop repairs or even replacing a 5 year old lawn mower.
