Default sparkplug re-thread



Hello, I have a 2000 Stratus, 2.4 engine....one of my sparkplug blew out of it's hole!! hehehe Found it was cross threaded or melted and worn out. Long story short, i need to tap an insert to replace the sparkplug. My problem is there is no tool that would fit down the chamber where the spark plug hole is. Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated !

thanks,

James
