Does anyone know what the thread size is for the Gauge Cluster coolant sensor is. Its the 1 prong one thats next to the ECU coolant sensor. I know its M12 but M12x??? I think its M12x1.0 or M12x1.25. The local hardware store, Auto parts store are a bunch of retards and couldnt even tell me what size it is.

Also whats the thread size for the CA Oil Drain plug.

goto a auto parts place like autozone or advance, most of the time they have a thread checker near where they sell bolts and nuts, if not check with fasnter company in the area, they should have a checker also , we bought a set of them they have been well worth the cost!

yea unfortunatly the Advance stores here suck, their thread checkers are abused horribly so you dont get a accurate reading.
