I was working on getting my fuel tank, fuel pump, and lines intalled today and I have been trying to figure out how to adapt the tank fittings to AN. After getting the tank on the bench and removing the stock fittings and tubes it looked like a 1/4npt pipe thread fitting might fit in the opening of the stock fitting. I dug out my taps and low and behold the 1/4npt tap threaded the hole in the stock fitting quite nicely. Could it realy be this easy? What am I missing? Anyone else done it this way? |

Where did you get the grommets? Any tips on installation? For the rear (you are going to think I'm nuts) I machines a mold out of aluminum to fit the firewall openings and for the 3/8" fuel lines. I used Devcon Flexane 80 to make the grommets. Paul Not nuts, just a really good problem solver. Hey that means you can make more! I'll take one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Felix I guess I could make some (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) the molds are for 3/8" line only. If that will work I'll make up a few, how's $3.00 shipped (USPS) each sound? Paul |
