Thread ID ?

Got a thread that I need ID'd.... it's tapered, 10.3 mm at the base and 9.7 mm at the tip and when checked with a thread gauge the gauged marked "27" fits the threads....

Any ideas what that is?

Ive come across that thread too on my Zetec. its used for the sensor which switches the fan in.

Any ideas where I could buy a bolt? I want to hollow it out and fit the temp gauge sensor there. The other sensor on the thermostat housing is being used for my Webber Alpha kit.

Thanks

Ian
