Ok so I really hope that this didn't screw all my hard work up, but I was attempting to do a compression test on my Johnson that I just re-built. I put in the compression tester and pulled the cord and the cylinder head hit the fitting and it would not back out without tearing threads back out with it. I really hope there's a solution to this because I've put a lot of time and money into this to have to trash it. I know that they have kits for minor re threads for cars but I don't know for boats. please help I need to know what my options might be, Thanks all
