Want to use time-sert to repair 6m threads, should I use steel insert or stainless, is
stainless compatible with aluminum?

YES it is, I've worked on many, many, marine out-drives and used stainless thread-serts and stainless hardware correct drill size is of UTMOST importance !

Thank you boobala,

I will order a time-sert kit for 6m and go with the stainless inserts if they have them, unfortunately i have a few 6m to repair. Former mechanic did some work on it and lost the 6m and jammed standard bolts in place.
