TIP See figure B and C for access and finished installation pictures CAUTION Wear eye protection and protective clothing when performing this operation to protect from getting metal chips in your eyes Also since exhaust manifolds can be very hot allow the engine to cool before drilling Make sure the park brake is set when working under the vehicle 1 Obtain a 1 8 National Pipe Tap NPT available from your hardware store Drill a 21 64 5 16 optional hole through the manifold wall and then use the pipe tap to cut the threads Follow the instructions provided with the tap The pipe tap is tapered so you will only want to turn the tap until the bottom threads of the tap are slightly deeper than flush with the inside of the exhaust manifold wall Use caution not to tap too deep since this would cause the thermocouple fitting and probe to seat too deep See Figure A Do not drill the hole in the middle of the manifold 2 Now that the manifold has been drilled and tapped remove the fitting from the Thermocouple and install by tightening the tapered thread end into the manifold with a 9 16 end wrench Ideally the tip of the fitting would be less than or flush with the inside of the exhaust flow path Tighten the fitting so that it is securely seated Then install the probe into the fitting and tighten the top nut of the fitting just tight enough to keep the probe firmly mounted hole see figure A 1 Make sure that the probe
