I removed the old plug at end of year and noticed the threads in the engine's plug socket were worn badly and pieces of the thread were on the spark plug. Now the new plug does not turn tightly. Can this be repaired? The mower is 3 years old and otherwise in good shape.

Sparkplugs are available in the next larger thread size for Briggs engines. Call your local lawnmower shop. If you take'em the head, he'll tap it in about 10 minutes. Good Luck. =^ ) In the future,start the plug by hand.

A product found at most automotive stores called Helicoil. It's an insert kit that repairs stripped threads.

Find a garage that will fit an insert into the engine,or a mower engineers to do this,this should solve the problem. Good luck.
