    Default glow plugs SXI vectra 2.2DTI what tap

    hi to all just got all my glow plug's out of my 2.2 dti with out them snapping great used lots of WD40. but when i got them out and looked at the threads they are damaged went to put the new ones in and they are tight. so stopped the last thing i want to do is snap the new ones putting them back in. so got a piece of alloy plate drilled a hole in at 8.5 mm and used a m10-1.25 pitch tap then a m10-1.5 pitch then a m10-1 pitch tap.
    now then does any one no what tap i should use i think the m10-1 pitch is the best fit. would like to know before i tap the head tomorrow
    many thanks jimmy
