3. | Table 2 Install piloted drill bit (1) into drill press chuck. | |
4. | With drill press NOT running: a. Position exhaust pipe (3) into drill press vise (2). NOTE Pilot tip of drill bit must be completely square and fully-inserted into bung. b. Lower drill press chuck and position piloted drill bit (1) into exhaust pipe bung. c. Clamp down drill press vise to exhaust pipe. d. Raise and lower drill press chuck to check for drill pattern. | |
5. | With drill press running: a. Apply cutting fluid to drill bit and hole as necessary. b. Drill through oxygen sensor bung. | |
6. | Repeat procedure for other oxygen sensor bung. | |

1. | Figure 3 Assemble tap to tap handle: a. Insert tap (3) into tap handle (1). b. Secure tap with set screw (4) of tap handle. Ensure tap is oriented so that set screw engages the flat of the tap. c. Apply grease (2) to end of tap. | |
2. | Figure 4 Position and clamp exhaust pipe (4) into bench vise (3). NOTE Pilot tip of tap (2) must be completely square and fully-inserted into bung. | |
3. | Insert pilot tip of tap (2) into oxygen sensor bung (1). NOTE Apply cutting fluid to tap and hole as necessary while tapping. | |
4. | Start tap by applying slight downward pressure while turning in a clockwise direction. | |
5. | Continue to turn tap clockwise until tap has bottomed out, as indicated by increased resistance. Do NOT force tap. | |
6. | Back tap out by turning tap counterclockwise, 1 - 2 turns, then blow out debris using low-pressure compressed air. | |
7. | Repeat Steps 5 and 6 until threads have been completely cut into oxygen sensor bung. | |
8. | Turn tap counterclockwise and remove tap. NOTE Tip end of exhaust pipe toward the ground when removing shop rags. This will assure cutting material debris will not fall into exhaust system. | |
9. | Blow off debris using low-pressure compressed air and remove exhaust pipe from bench vise. | |
10. | Remove shop rags from exhaust pipe. | |
11. | Clean off cutting fluid and grease: a. Position exhaust so fluid runs out of pipe. b. Use PJ1® cleaner or equivalent to remove all traces of contaminants from thread area. |
