The trick with Timeserts is to pick the right depth insert. It's the last few threads that expand to lock the insert in place, so with eg. your crankcase you want to select one (as close as possible to) the same depth as the through-hole to ensure the expanded section of insert is gripping metal and not thin air inside the sump.
