Hi,I need a timesert fitted to a motorbike engine sump drain plug hole.I can remove engine if needed,but you can access it while still fitted to the frame.
Anyone know of somebody who can do it localish to the West Midlands...
Cheers all.

How are you going to deal with the swarf with the motor in situ?  

 

That said, a time-sert is the real deal.

Just flush out with oil. It also has a magnet and a screen filter to catch any swarf
