Title: Oxygen sensor bungs - M696 Post by: metroplex on June 17, 2013, 12:26:01 PM I noticed that the stock exhaust pipes have smaller bungs upstream of the factory oxygen sensors. Why are these smaller bungs there? Are there wideband O2s that can fit these threads?

I'm wanting to buy an adapter so i can place a temperature sensor in there. Title: Re: Oxygen sensor bungs - M696 Post by: brad black on June 23, 2013, 03:54:30 PM 1/8 bsp.
Title: Re: Oxygen sensor bungs - M696 Post by: scaramanga on June 25, 2013, 03:09:27 PM I just measured the plug again , it really is a .9mm pitch and not 1/8 bsp.
Title: Re: Oxygen sensor bungs - M696 Post by: Speeddog on June 25, 2013, 03:59:16 PM 1/8 BSP has 28TPI.
That's 0.907mm pitch, so close you can't tell using a pitch gauge. And it's 0.383" diameter, which is 9.73mm. If there were M10x0.9 screws, they'd likely fit. But I've never seen any, and M10x0.9 isn't on any metric fastener chart I've got.

I just picked up a 1/8 bspp compression fitting and did some comparing. but of course before comparing i try'd screwing it in ;D. it wouldn't go in more than the first thread, if i lubed it and forced it, it would go , but i don't want to do it that way. original plug = 9.5mm with .9mm pitch 1/8 bspp = 9.8mm with 28tpi i can see the difference in the pitch. if we cannot find a company that makes them i'll have a couple machined. |
