The threat of the HEGO I use is M18x1,5.

It is 20 cm from the exhaust valve away in the outlet manyfold. The working
temarature should be between 300 (heated 200) celsius and 800 celsius, so it
is in a small tube weldet to the exhaust with a 10mm hole. So the sensor is
not directly in the exhaust and the temp don't go above 800 C.
