I took out the 125m today, to ride to work and it killed on me and i couldnt get it to start again. So, i took out the plug, cleaned it and put it back in...but i couldnt get it to grab the threads.. THEY ARE STRIPPED. idk how, i have always taken it easy when i install the plugs too. ANYWAYS if you have the part for an 84 125m that the plug threads into, please drop me a line if you are willing to sell one!!

Cant you just tapp out the inside of the spark plug piece and put her back in? Or is it too hard of a metal?

Just get a mechanic at your local Honda dealer to fix it for you. YOU take the head to him or it will cost a bunch of $$$$$$$$ for them to dismantle the engine and re-assemble it after the repair. Make sure to get a new head gasket while you are at it.

250sxwheeliepop: i dont think i can rethread it, because then i cant run the same plug. Im sure its not too hard either...
LET ME CLEAR THE PROBLEM UP A LITTLE: the only part that is messed up is the part the plug threads into...is there any way i can only replace that part?? i havent looked at it in detail yet, so iono
