    Best off buying an NPT tap and die set for a few £ and then you'll have everything and can check the sizes.

    NPT Tapping and fittings

    Right, I have a load of sensors from 14point7 to stick on the motor. All the fittings are NPT threads which I have nothing like in the garage. Some have a description of the thread size on the sender and some don't

    Does anyone have any suggestions who stocks NPT taper taps or is able to supply one on loan? If not, NPT weld-on bungs for ally and stainless will be required. eBay doesn't list much and the stuff in the US is silly postage and will take ages to get to the UK.

    I have:

    EGT sensor (nothing stamped onto it)
    Water temp sensor (9718 NPT)
    Fuel pressure/Oil pressure (1/8 27-NPT)

    I may have to try a local engineering firm if I can't sort it myself...last resort!

    Cheers,
    Steve
