Default "Helicoil" installation without the insert tool? Need advice

I have never had much luck in using Helicoil thread inserts - even
when I used a kit. Now I am trying to do so without buying a kit.


I'm curious -- what problems have you had? I've had very consistent
good luck with Heli-coils, going into both steel and aluminum...
