    O2 thread pitch and size????

    Does anyone know? The replacement set of downpipes I picked up has the first two or three threads buggered up.

    Thanks,

        if you're looking to plug a o2 bung, get a toyota 22re oil drain plug (thread pitch=18-1.5) from napa or somewhere, can't be more than a buck or two.

          I know this is an old post.

          for future reference:

          the 02 sensor is the same thread as an American spark plug. You can buy "thread chasers" anywhere.

          in an emergency, buy a 99 cent spark plug and cut a groove in it to chase the threads.
