been there done that. i tapped it out to a standard size. i cant remember the thread count but you want to definately take your time. only go up a size just a bit bigger than what the metric size was. and make sure the bolt you use for the new size has a rubber gasket. either go to home depot and get a o-ring or gasket that fits around the base of the bolt head to help secure any possible leaks. mine has worked just fine. whatever you do dont use a helicoil. your just asking for more problems. just my 2c. good luck
