Air injector plugs for 68 2.0L heads
The air injector holes in my heads are 12mm with what appears to be a 1.25mm pitch.
Has anyone else looked for plugs this size? Has anyone found plugs this size? Thanks Joe |
"off the shelf" plugs seem to be 1.5 pitch but perhaps you could make plugs from 12 x 1.25 full threaded socket head cap screws or 12 x1.25 set screws if sealing on the threads is sufficient. See the on-line catalog at this website:

Thanks for the site! I was having a lot of trouble finding a M12x1.25 in a socket head.

So I ordered some M12x1.25 socket head cap screws only to find I did not measure the thread pitch correctly. The air injectors are even finer thread, probably M12x1.0. I have been able to find taps with this thread, so I guess I will search for a die and make some plugs. :(

air injector plugs are usually 10mm dia with 1mm pitch.

...and it's nice if they are tapered as well. I tried using a straight thread and blew a plug out in 500 miles. That was sealed with red loctite, too!
I got my tapered plugs from jhelgesen on this board. It might be worth PMing him with specs to see if he has what you need. |
