Bruce,

I`ll try with the video but it will in all likelihood be so fast that it will be unlikely to be caught on video

Re the thread size, I estimate half inch (5/8 too big, 1/4 too small - bit like the three bears) - I`ll take a chance on the thread (unless someone knows what it is?) if it doesn`t match the plug when I get it out - I have a large wooden plug to jam in there to allow me to exchange it
