Default URGENT! I Need a mobile thread repair service in SE Melbourne.

Looking for a contact number of someone who is able to repair a stripped spark plug thread ASAP. Must be a mobile service and in SE Melbourne. Anyone got a contact?

Been serching the net with no luck. QLD and NSW seem to have quite a few but no luck in Melbourne.

This is who we used at Ford, the bloke is bloody brilliant, usually takes less than 30 minutes even for really difficult stuff, only ever saw him have an issue with a high tensile balancer bolt which we took the head off in a 5l haha

He rang me asking for help, but I'm in Sydney ATM, and he'd stripped a spark plug thread earlier today.

A big thread mine I know but this thread came up when I googled mobile thread repairs!

Is this guy still in operation?

Cheers,

I recon you could probably call him and he would tell you.

I am a bit busy at the moment to do it for you

Damien is still operating but can need a few days notice and not sure if he goes to private premises, I think he only does workshop visits
