As per the subject, can anyone help me with the throttle shaft thread size? Reason why is, I'm getting an adapter made that fits on the shaft and turns a TPS (throttle position sensor), and I can't find my thread gauges. :oops:

I forgot that they may be metric.. I suppose it went metric when they converted the H6 to HIF44? Thanks. I'll have to find my thread gauge, failing that I'll buy new one! 8)
