Does anyone know what size threads are used with the EGR tube fittings on a 2.6? I need to tap the threads on the exhaust manifold to install a new tube, but can't find anyone who knows what thread size they used, other than metric. Or if someone has a spare exhaust manifold around, with good threads???? Greg [ 11 May 2002, 10:39 PM: Message edited by: GregM ]

What year engine? Does your EGR tube connect to the exhaust manifold with the big round flared fitting, or the 2-bolt flange?
I've got a couple of the 2-bolt flange type manifolds you can have one for shipping (or free if you'll be in Moab).
The 2-bolt flange type uses 2, M8x1.25 mm studs/nuts. I'm not sure what size the other big, threaded flare type fitting is.
[Edit: Doh! Just saw your sig and you probably have the big flared fitting. Sorry, can't help with that one.]

Dude, I totally forgot. Glad you were able to find the answer. That taps gonna run you a few bucks. Know anybody with a machine shop that cound loan it to you for an evening? If you do have to purchase, one of the industrial supply companies is best(Mcmaster, grainger, J&L, MSC) Where is St. Paul, I know MSC has Indiana locations) And here I was SOOO proud for not checking the wire while at work yesterday.............
