    Dear Inmates,

    does anybody have a good source for this spark plug repair kit from TimeSert? I seem to find very different prices and inconsistent supplies, they either have the kit or the inserts, never both!
    this is what I'm looking for in a M12x1.25 - 9mm size (parts#4212/42121):

    McMaster-Carr. They don't have the best prices, but they almost always have the parts in stock and (for me at least) items shipped Ground show up the next day.

    Anyone on this thread interested in selling or lending their repair tool kit?

    I'm need to repair stripped spark plug threads on my KLR. These tool kit are expensive, figure I would see if a fellow ADVer might be able to help out before making the big purchase.

    I need the M12 X 1.25 (Time-Sert 4212) standard tool kit.

    Thanks, Paul
