Sorry, didn't mean to beat him up. It was to understand why he did what he did, learn from other's mistakes.

If I were to do such as job, I'd have a good glow plug on the bench before starting so I can take measurements in order to choose the correct drills and taps.
The ONLY way I'd attempt this drill job is with guides designed for this specific job. No freaking way I'd attempt it by hand!
