From jlieberman37 at comcast.net Sat Jan 4 19:06:57 2020 From: jlieberman37 at comcast.net (John Lieberman) Date: Sat, 4 Jan 2020 20:06:57 -0600 Subject: [Mini] Thread size Message-ID: <26fa1a58-16a1-3303-8619-c6183f99ce27@comcast.net> Do any of you happen to know the thread pattern for the water temperature sending unit that screws into the head on an A+ 1275? I bought some Bosch electrical gauges -- water temperature and oil pressure -- for my '81.? But, when I unscrewed the old Smith's water temperature sending unit and tried all of the adapters that came with the Bosch gauge, none of them matched the thread pattern.? So I'm thinking it must be metric.? Since I'm a Yank, I know a lot about SAE threads but I don't know much about metric threads.? I'm thinking it might be M16-1.5, but that's just a guess.? Can anybody shed any light on this subject?
