[QUOTE="phranticness, post: 1089423, member: 66089"] use a 3/8 air gun and run the bolt and the insert untill they both come out together, put the insert in the vise and remove the bolt, clean the threads untill they work freely together. run the bolt into the insert a couple threads and clamp the bold head with a pair of needle nose vise grips, find some plastic stock I.E. soda bottle, coolent bottle, whatever, cut some peices small enough to cover the hole in the tank with a little excess now heat the insert with a propane torch untill it's really hot, it won't glow red so about 2 minutes, now set the hot insert on the hole forceing the new plastic in and hold untill it cools. pretty safe repair that works....
