Never used one personally. Know some who have and this is the correct fix for a spark plug problem.

Had a bike with a heli coil installed in it when I got it. Eveytime I tried to pull the plug the coil tried to back out with it. Not the correct way to do the plug deal.

Threads that are stripped out, yes, it's a great fix, but not for a spark plug.
