When you buy a car, get all parts for a tune up and then realize someone's stripped out threads for your spark plugs. lol oh well :) now I get to pull a head and clean it up and change all of the gaskets.

I'm not even going to worry about a heli coil, i've heard stories where they have backed out and all while taking out spark plugs. So i'm just going to go to pick and pull and pull a new head, clean it up and all and put it on. problem fixed and a bit of my engine is a little cleaner :) lol
