Default Wideband/o2 bung plug?

Got my new headers and had them put in an extra bung for a wideband but they didn't include a plug. Where can I get one? Is this something I can just go pick up at a local parts store? Was hoping to install the headers this weekend. Thanks.

I'd say a metal plug from the plumbing section would work

Its not the size of an ls spark plug. There are some old ford plugs that fit in a pinch if you have room. Use anti-seize, you could break off the spark plug and make it work bc summit is $5 + $10 ship. wheras the spark plug will be a buck. Next time you order from summit remember to add it with the rest of your stuff.

It's 18mm... same as the OLD style plugs....
BE SURE to use a smear of anti-seize on the threads. SENSOR SAFE Anti!

most muffler shops will have them laying around. They come in new converters and get removed when installed

I stand corrected on the spark plug size for a O2 bung, sorry about that.
