Hello all! I was helping my dad install a replacement fuel tank in his BN1 today; and we had a hard time getting the hard line fuel pickup threaded onto the fitting on the tank. We measured carefully, and I think we've determined that the thread size is 1/4 NPT; we're going to get both a tap and a die so that we can clean up the threads on the tank and the hard line fitting. Then we'll get back to the task of lining up the two parts . . . don't want to cross-thread!
Any particular comments or feedback? Does that sound like the correct thread to you? I know on my MG's, getting hard lines threaded in correctly can be difficult, so I'm not too surprised that this hard line is a little finicky.
Thanks in advance for your input and comments!
