Should I expect to be able to buy a small length of tubing to use for raising my fuel inlet off the bottom of my CA's tank? Or can you only buy that size by the roll? Or would anyone consider dropping an inch long piece in the mail to me for the right price? ------------- '41 C w/Woods L503 mower, #3 mower, 2-way plows for C |

| My father in law who was a tractor tech for years told me to get some sediment bowl screen and roll it up and stick down in there. Said It would not let the junk on the bottom though and you did not have 3/4 inch of gas left in the bottom of the tank either. |

I had a couple hiccups in my 45one day, of course I had to be 5 miles from home at the time. I drained the tank and pulled the sediment assembly off.The inlet is the perfect size for a 1/4 " NPT tap. I cut a few threads in the top of the base and screwed a short nipple in. Reassembled it and haven't touched it since. I do believe a place like TSC or Farm and Fleet has screens a couple inches long that have pipe threads on one end and closed on the other end. ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

I've also done the 1/4" pipe nipple deal, only I used brass ones with several small holes drilled in the sides. ------------- HANSEN'S OLD ORANGE IRON. Showing, Pulling, & Going!! |

| A small tightly wound spring works as a strainer too. |

Yeah, I was actually thinking they might mean 1/16 NPT... the inlet hole in mine is 1/4", and the tap drill size for 1/16 NPT is 0.246. Although that size might not have a large enough ID. I'll make one or the other work if I go that route. Thanks ------------- '41 C w/Woods L503 mower, #3 mower, 2-way plows for C |
