I'm wanting to remove the plugs in the block on the main oil gallery and tap them to fit threaded bungs to allow proper cleaning of the main oil gallery, what size thread have people been using ?

Cheers
Phil.

1/4" BSP taper. You can get brass allen key plugs. The tap should go straight in the hole, but keep checking the depth and don't go too far *happy*

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

I'm using M12s but it doesn't really matter as long you get a brush in there.

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem.
