have a Rapid 12/250 the 4BA thread is stripped holding the exhaust valve .it blows out the Grub screw this only happens on firing and no leak otherwise.
I have a hele coil kit , but was told that a new block is the only answer any thoughts appreciated.

I would re-tap the threads one size up..
I believe it would be a 4mm thread....
A couple of members have done this Fix!!
