A-65 Oil screen thread pitch?

El Reno Aviation has a tap to fit wich they rent/loan it to F&M STC filter
buyers.
Maybe call them?

Thanks for the info! I think it probably would be good to get a pitch
gauge as well and triple check. Besides, I'm SURE there will be other
places I could use the gauge...But it is nice to get that fuzzy feeling
from someone else confirming what I see here. Thanks again...

Doe anybody know what the thread pitch for the oil screen is on a
Continental A-65? I have slightly boogered threads on the engine
threads and I want to run a set of dies through (I bought a tool with
the dies from McMaster Carr). It looks like 16 TPI is the closest.


I machined a plug for remote oil filter. I confirm 16TPI.

Thanks for the tip. I bought a tool from McMaster-Carr for repairing
internal threads and it did the trick....
