Stripped 727 Transmission cooling line

A helicoil is going to be just as big a risk for chips as you still have to drill larger and re-thread the hole. Sorry, I'm not familiar enough with TF to recommend, depending on what port, you might be able to SLIGHTLY pressurize another port on the transmission, and use heavy grease to "retain" the chips.


I don't understand what you mean by "stripped." Did you break the adapter that screws in, or ruin the threads while attempting to screw it in? If the latter, you might be able to chace the original threads and clean it up.

Last if you are lucky enough that this is the OUTLET side of the cooler ports, you could flush it, although messy, with a "quick start" of the engine so to speak. Lots of rags. Lots.
