Could anyone please confirm the thread size of the Pinto water temp sender?

M10x1.0 rings a bell.... but im not 100% sure...

Think it's ⅛"NPTF Thread from memory.

1/8 - 27 NPTF is used on most fords of that era.

Haha....that was quick!!!

Ok...so here is a curveball... anyone know what the thread size might be on a 1972 TR6 engine? For the water temp...

Im trying to find a converter so I can run my multimeter temp probe in the TR engine...

No idea, but might be worth a call to ETB Instruments. They have lots of different adapters and seem to have a very good knowledge of what fits what engine.

I was going to suggest them too.

They're really, really helpful whenever I've called them and great customer service too.

Cheers,
