NEED HELP Stripped bolt!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think I may have stripped out the Oil pickup tube bolt.. It is the bolt that is on the end of the pickup..
I looked it up and it says 106lb in..
I can get about 30lb in on it but am afraid to go any more cause it doesnt seem like it is getting any tighter..
When I backed it out the first time there was one ring of aluminun on the bolt..
What should I do??
Chase it with a tap??
Put some RTV on the bolt and get it as tight as I can go??
Any other suggestion??
Thanks

But do it right and pull the oil pump off, put a helicoil in it.
