Unfortunately, John, the correct Tiger temp sender straight thread is
close to the smaller diameters of the original pipe thread, and
re-tapping will result in cutting thru the insert. A thread sert tool
provides a tap for an enlarged thread, and an adapter to reduce the size
to the sender thread. All special tools are provided, and this is a
neat, safe installation.
