Default Oil pressure switch "Thread Size"

Hi, Can anyone on the board help me out and tell me what the thread size is for the oil pressure switch on 2.8i engine out of a Capri/ Granada
Is it 1/8 BSP or 3/8 BSP?

Cheers

Cheers Jim I’m looking for a 1/8 BSP oil pressure switch, to get around an auk word problem.
In the past I have found one on a 6 cylinder engine and was hoping that the 2.8 would have the same 1/8 thread size.

Cheers

Steve
