I have a Jeep grand Cherokee 2.7crd.
I have stripped the threads on number 3 injector retaining bolt hole. My intention is to do a helicoil repair on this. When looking through the forum I have noticed that the tappet cover has to be removed in order to do this. My first question is why. If I drill the hole out slowly and very carefully what harm can it do?
My second question is why you can’t re thread the hole and use a larger bolt.
