Fuel Tank fittings & pads Options

[Gatornapper]

When I got my 914 the tank was not in the car. I had the tank restored, but the guy lost the fittings that connect to the bottom of the tank. The fittings are no longer available anywhere.

Can anyone tell me the size of the fittings? They seem to be about 14mm dia., fine metric thread.

Also, I cannot tell where the rubber pads go that support the tank on the seam - I was told they go on the sides, but I cannot tell where. See my post #53 under "Newbie from virginia..."

Can someone attach a pic of where they go or describe their placement precisely?

I'm dead in the water getting the car running without these fittings and knowing the placement of the pads.

Thanks for the help!

Garland -

Thank you! I finally figured it out looking at wear marks after a guy told me the went on the sides - I earlier concluded the slots meant they went on the rib/seam....the one on the driver's side will even sit in place on its own.

But you've confirmed my thoughts - thank you so much for taking the trouble of taking the pics and posting them.......

Impressed how new your 914 looks on the inside......
