Hi All I am posting this, because I am not sure I know how to fix the problem that I experienced today. I was in the process of attaching my gearbox back to my sigma engine, following the build manuals torque setting 47Nm (bell housing to engine) and 20Nm (bell hosing to sump) with new bolts and a new digital torque wrench. As I came to torque up the last bolt I heard a sound I haven’t heard for a very long time: the ping of a thread going in the block! The strange thing was, that I was nowhere near the torque setting (according to the wrench) yet. Ok, so ordinarily it’s a pain, but a helicoil kit and a bit of work will sort the problem, but not this time. The thread that has gone in the block is one of the two that are inside / combined with the locating pin for the bell housing. So, this means I can’t just drill it out and tap it again for the helicoil, because this would destroy the locating pin. There is also not enough room to fit a nut and a longer bolt, because of the shape of the casting of the block. I feel gutted, I don’t know what I have done wrong, it’s not like I don’t know how to use a torque wrench; I have been kicking myself all afternoon. I am hoping someone can come up with a smart solution to my problem. Or have I got to find another block?
