Ok. I did it. It took me whole 30 minuts to do it, but it's done.
Lets recap: heli-coil and fumoto f109 valve are in.
Helicoil people advised me not to use any lock tight in the process, especially if valve is going in.
I was worried, that helicoil insert is longer, then oil plug and if there is any metal shavings left in the pan, there would be no way for them to come out. Not a problem at all. I was told, that everything will end up in the filter. I will post pictures of the valve later in the week. Thanks everybody for their help. ::008::
