So I was an idiot when using the harmonic balancer puller to get the balancer off and didn't use the pointed stopper at first to keep the main driver of the puller from pushing against the threads. It messed up the first thread on the crank before we stopped and put that piece on and finished pulling the balancer off. I cleaned out the first thread but now the balancer bolt won't start threading into the crank.
There wasn't too much damage so it should fixable. What's the best way to get the balancer bolt to thread back in tho?
Do I need a thread chaser?
Should I use this to just clean out the threads and then see if it will start?:

Need to get the car back up and running so I need to take care of this asap. Thanks for the help.
