I'm rebuilding the rear bevel/drive unit on a Moto Guzzi, and the "oil level plug" thread is in poor condition.
I could easily helicoil it, but am unsure if helicoiling is likely to be oil tight, and therefore wondered if this was a good idea or not?
Other options are to tap out to 12mm, but I'd prefer to keep it standard (10mm) if possible.
Regards,
Reggie
