A. Removal of the Inserts from the Turbine Exhaust Case
   (1) Remove loose or damaged inserts from the turbine exhaust case.
     (a) Use 1227-6 EXTRACTING TOOL (Ref. AMM TASK 70-35-08-300-010).
Subtask 72-50-00-210-057-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
B. Examine the Threads
   (1) Examine the threads after you remove the insert.
     (a) Use the GAGE - THREAD (0.2500 IN - 28 THD/IN) for single helical coil or the 1927-4 THREAD PLUG GAGE for double helical coil.
       1 If the threads are damaged, do a single helical coil insert repair by Steps C., D., E., F. and J.
       2 If the hole threads are not damaged, replace the single helical coil by Steps D., F. and J.
       3 If the hole threads are damaged more than the limits of a single helical coil insert, do a double helical coil insert repair by Steps C., D., E., G., H. and J.
   (2) Do a dimensional inspection of the repair area at the turbine exhaust case to make sure that there is sufficient minimum wall thickness for machining.
NOTE: If the hole is already tapped for a double helical wire thread insert, it is permitted to install a double helical coil thread insert by steps D., G., H. and J. subject to part meeting minimum wall thickness requirement.

C. Machining of the Damaged Threads
WARNING: WHEN YOU REPAIR THE HOLE:
  • DO NOT DRILL OR TAP INTO THE CASE WALL
  • DO NOT DECREASE THE WALL THICKNESS OF THE BOSSES TO LESS THAN THE LIMITS GIVEN FOR THE MINOR DIAMETER OF THE THREADS ON FIGURES 801 AND 802.
IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THESE INSTRUCTIONS, YOU CAN CAUSE CRACKS, NICKS AND OTHER STRUCTURAL DAMAGE TO THE WALL.
   (1) Machine the damaged threads to the required thread minor diameter.
   (2) Machine the lead-in chamfer.
   (3) Tap the hole and remove the chips.
     (a) Use the 4FPB TAP, PLUG - HELICOIL for single helical coil insert or the TAP PLUG - HELICOIL - BOTTOM TWINSERT 1/4-28 for double helical coil insert.

E. Examine the threads
   (1) Examine the threads after you have tapped them.
     (a) Use the GAGE - THREAD (0.2500 IN - 28 THD/IN) or the 1927-4 THREAD PLUG GAGE.
Subtask 72-50-00-420-059-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
F. Installation of the New Single Helical Coil Inserts
   (1) Put the insert (PN MS21209F4-15) onto the tip of the 7552-4 INSERT INSTALLATION TOOL.
   (2) Put the insert into the threaded hole.
   (3) Turn the handle clockwise so the top of the insert is one to one and a half pitch below the face of the boss.
   (4) Break the tang of the insert at the notch with the 3695-4 INSERT TANG REMOVAL TOOL (Ref. AMM TASK 70-35-08-300-010).
Subtask 72-50-00-420-060-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
G. Installation of the Outer Double Helical Coil Inserts
   (1) Put the outer insert (PN 2391-4CN375) onto the tip of the 7552-4 INSERT INSTALLATION TOOL.
   (2) Put the insert into the threaded hole.
   (3) Turn the handle clockwise so the top of the insert is one to one and a half pitch below the face of the boss.
   (4) Break off and remove tang with the 3695-4 INSERT TANG REMOVAL TOOL (Ref. AMM TASK 70-35-08-300-010).
Subtask 72-50-00-420-061-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
H. Installation of the Inner Double Helical Coil Inserts
   (1) Put the insert (PN 4691-4CN339) onto the tip of the 7552-4 INSERT INSTALLATION TOOL.
   (2) Put the insert into the threaded hole.
   (3) Align the ends of the inner insert and the outer insert.
   (4) Break off and remove tang with the 3695-4 INSERT TANG REMOVAL TOOL (Ref. AMM TASK 70-35-08-300-010).
Subtask 72-50-00-210-059-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
