    No pics of the install, basically rethreaded it with the tool, put alot of grease on it to catch all the shavings, put some gasket sealer silicone on the insert and screwed it in. Grabbed 1 small glob of grease that fell in and blew out the cylinder. So easy, we’ll see how it holds up. Some good vids on you tube also helped

    I bought two 362's for $50 and used the "Save a Plug" kit. Works great. Except I pulled the cylinder instead of using the grease trick.
