I think a few of my plug threads in the head may be stripped. I'm unsure if they are but i do know this , after hand tight I go to turn a 1/4 turn with the ratchet the feel i get is that it is tightening a little and then a little loose. I didnt go more than 3/4 of a turn but suspect the last owner may have stripped them. There were non-stock plugs in there and I threw them away after inspecting them.
I rode it around for a few min but didnt want to go too far. checked them again and they seemed to be okay.
So my question is , what is the worst case scenario if i am running with loose plugs.
Any anyone have suggestions on this?
So far i thought about driving it home, helicoil, tap for larger size. Damn... I dont want to take the head off.
