I got a yt125h 81 trimoto and when i was ridding the motor started making this popping noise so i took the seat off and every time i gave it any gas it would pop and it was loosing comppression i looked at the head and i could see oil coming out of it so i quickly rode it back to my house and tryed tightening the head bolts there on studs with a nut to tighten the head and got three of the four tightend then on the fourth it was really loose so i tried tightening it and all it did was pull the stud out of the hole in the cylinder every time i turned it so then i just grabed it with my fingers and pulled it out and it took the threds with it :shock:

:clap for me

So what should i do should i put a helicoil in it ive never used one before and if thats what i should do can you give me instructions on how to do it :?: :clap

or do you have a different idea on how to fix it :?:

any suggestions would be appreciated
