Need to find out what this thread is - it's on an air temperature
sensor for a car.

Its dimensions (male) a- Thread outside diameter Threads per
thingie metric 13.8mm 1.5 imperial
0.54in 16 tpi


Your measurements are probably not quite accurate enough to rely on
(i.e. 16 tpi not quite being 1.5mm) but it may be a 14mm x 1.5mm metric
fine. It's apparently not a BSP or NPT thread.


My guess is also 14mm x 1.5 - but wasn't sure of some of the odd threads.
Sorry my measurements weren't up to scratch. ;-) My thread gauges only do
basic ones.
