Get a heli coil spark plug thread repair kit. Use the tap until it bottoms out. Then screw the longest insert on a new plug and put blue loc tight on the insert. let sit a couple minuteminutes then take the plug out and use the punch that comes with it to beat a new seat. Make sure you install the knurled end up.




I've fixed hundreds of them this way
