If you are near a well stocked hardware store or know somebody with a
good toolbox, buy or borrow a threadgauge. I suspect you have a
"withworth pipe thread" . Not easy to find anywhere, but you may be able
to get a machine shop to make one (or three). I have the same problem on
our Albin. (BTW officially for sale).

dimensions: < http://shopswarf.orcon.net.nz/bsw.html >
