Default oxygen sensor threads... what are they??

Aren't they just a typical spark plug thread? In which case, what thread is that? When I welded up my downpipe, I forgot to put an o2 bung in, and I dont have the welder at my house anymore, so I just wanna go and drill a hole and heli-coil it... And as far as leaks go, its open downpipe, so i'm not worried about that...

Bingo.

For those looking for cheap o2 bungs, they sell sparkplug antifoulers in the 'Help!' section at most autoparts stores. Around $4 for a pair.

i bought one of these but it didnt work... it wasnt just a bung, it was a cylinder type thing, that the o2 sensor wouldnt fit in... I cut the thing in half to try and use it as just the nut, but the threads were wrong... and it was an 18mm size too
