is there any such thing, and would it be ok to use on a oil pressure switch, i took it out to push a coolant hose on a bit more cos it had a slight drip. taking the oil pressure switch out, i noticed what looked like to my untrained eye a stripped thread on the switch thread, tried a new one i think the threads are different, has it seams to get tight when putting it in a few threads, but the old one goes in still but wont nip up.
i know it should be done the correct way, heli coil or what ever type of insert, this is something i cant do or have the tools to do it or even the money for it to go to a garage for the engine to be stripped down and head off for it to be done, was thinking of the option of heat resistant thread tape, if its such a thing,
car is a 05 corsa.
thanks
