anyone know the thread size for O2 sensor bung on the racing beat DR midpipe. i am getting a bad exhaust leak from it,wanting to plug it but need to know the size plug i need.

I dont care about the CEL that much just clear it every once in awhile. but the exhaust leak sucks.

What makes you think putting a plug in is going to do which is the same concept as having the sensor installed. Seems like you have a bad weld on the bung, or the sensor isnt seated all the way. Did you also replace the 2 midpipe gaskets and check if the bolts are all tight?

I just swapped my midpipe and neglected to install new seals as they "looked" good but the front leaks.

the 02 sensor comes with a pre-installed crush seal, I am talking about the 2 midpipe gaskets.
