Choco, I remember you asked a question about the threads on GM Manifold Air Temperature Sensors, but it was buried deep in a non-related thread.

I was unable to find your question until Brootal revived that thread this AM.

If you haven't already received the info you sought, here is some info.

GM # 25037334 MATS has 3/8"-18 thread and two terminals. ...It was used on 94-98 Chev & GMC trucks, 90-93 Geo, 94-95 Honda, 93-95 Isuzu.  .......NAPA # TS4031

GM # 96064749 MATS has M12 x 1.5 threads and two terminals.  ...It was used on 91-92 Chev & GMC trucks, 91-96 Geo, 96 Pontiac. ......NAPA #TS4030

GM # 25037225 MATS has 3/8"-18 thread and two terminals.  ..It was used on 88-92 Buick, 88-92 Chev pass, 88-93 Chev & GMC trucks, 88-92 Olds, 88-91 Pontiac.  ......NAPA # TS5102

There are three other MATS which were commonly used on GM products, but they are unthreaded.  They also have the two terminal connection.

This info is from a 1998 NAPA-Echlin catalog.

Edelbrock's Pro-Flo EFI system used a GM # 25036751 MATS, but I do not have any info on that part #.  ....It is threaded, but I am unable to say what size threads it has.

BTW, that 3/8"-18 thread is pipe thread.  .....It does not specify if it is NPT (tapered threads) or NPS (straight threads).

There are no resistance values given for these MATS.  ....Do you require a certain value, or is this compensated for in the programming?

Ummmm...glad to be of service. :)

Which post was it? The "rude words" one?

Trust Choco to change the subject! :roll:

Hey, thanks, Bruce, that's what I'm after. I don't care what the values are as I can change the maps in the software using Kalmaker on a Delco ECM. My problem was that I didn't want to drill and tap extra threads, or re-tap imperial threads to metric in my Offenhauser Tunnel Ram which is set up for MPFI in my 360 Mopar. I have a plethora of sensors, but I can't tell the difference between a Metric or a NPT thread just by looking at them. It's the CTS and MAT that I need.
Thanks again.

Do you Aussies have "thread gauges?  ....These tools are used to identify the pitch of threads for metric and imperial threads.

I have some info on CTS's also.  ...How can I help?

Choco, if it's tapered it will be either NPT or BSP. Most probably NPT. Some BSP/NPT theads are interchangable. From memory the 3/8BSP male will go into a 3/8NPT female but not the other way round.
Or was that the other way round :roll:
Anyway both are fairly course threads and the US tend to use NPT while UK and Europe tend to use BSP. Here in Oz get both :evil:
The Holden sensors I got were fine pitch (can't remember the number, 1mm I think) 12mm for the CLT and 14mm for the MAT. Both were parallel and much finer than the tapered type threads.
The O2 sensor was 18mm.
