Troubleshooting

Stud is difficult to thread

Ensure the stud is properly aligned with the thread in the engine component. Check that the correct stud size is being used with the kit. Verify the engine component's threads are clean and free from debris.

Confirm that the stud size matches the kit's specifications. Ensure the socket is fully engaged with the kit and the stud. If the stud is damaged, it may not seat properly.
