Nice tips. Will check the threads. I calculated 1 1/8 was 28.5 mm and was guessing 29. Now I’m not guessing. Will pick up a 29mm deep in 1/2”.

could I bother you for the dimensions on that gasket? I can put a caliper on my thermaswitch tomorrow, or see what Napa has tonight. I may have to make this. Bespoke gaskets . The list of things I make for this car is growing. It’s worth it. I’ll try “vw 29mm temperature switch gasket” and see what. See how good my google-fu is.

I also have the famous Cleveland oil leak around the sender. Anyone ever built this area up? Any solutions besides permatex “forever” thread sealer? So hard to remove that stuff.

Thanks everyone!
