[Roadsters] 1600 Cylinder head water temp sending unit nut

[Ed Mitchell]

Hi All...Happy New Year You

 

Needing some advice on how to take care of this problem.

 

The original Cylinder head water temp sending unit was rusted\corroded in
place.after sitting for 20+ years

 

So Being the 'Shade Tree Wannabe Mechanic' that I am...I took a Dremel tool
in and got that sucker out

 

I was careful.but not careful enough.(I can feel you all wince)  :-)

 

How do I repair the Pipe threads on an aluminum head.and possibly (probably)
the seat the sending unit sits in?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks
