Consider the kit as a reasonably priced alternatve that does not require head removal in most cases, and I beleive it comes with enough inserts to do more than one plug. Conventional wisdom suggests you should remediate them all while your'e at it.
Timeserts are superior to heli's - there's a ton of posts on that as well. Don't choose the cheapest route.
As I indicated before - use the Search function!
And, do the PM on your new 3V's !!!
Good luck
