The first versions of anti-seize, when used on plugs in aluminum heads,
never worked for me.
A carefully applied coat of graphite on both the male and female threads did
work; no helicoils since then. I use graphite on all fittings that might
have to be removed.
Newer versions of anti-seize may work better.

Neverseez! That is a brand name. FLAPS will sell you some copper color
substitute.
As Curt predicted, I stripped the threads of my oil cooler. I am getting
a
used one off eBay, should show up shortly.
When I install this puppy, should I use some kind of anti suite agent? Or
is that futile, or even counter productive?
Thanks,
Tim
