The cover screws? I'm pretty sure they're M6-1.0. If they take a 10m/m socket, they're M6 - if they take a 13m/m socket, they should be M8-1.25.

If that's the case, I think they're regular M10-1.5 threads. He'd mentioned a "tap" - so I'd figured it was for the internal threads on a screw hole. External threads are made with a "die."
If all you're doing is cleaning up the threads, try using a very hard nut first (property class 10.9 or greater.) It shouldn't cut new threads, but it will be hard enough to clean up and re-form existing threads.

M10-1.5 sounds right. I remember it was metric. Too bad I didn't notice this earlier. I just gave away a nice carbon-fiber looking shifter knob that had a compession type fitting.

Du-uh - so he did. Ya got me!
Yeah, M10-1.5 should be it - and those silly little Nylon "compression" nuts for cheap-o shifter knobs aren't worth a damn (don't ask how I know...)
