fuel pump outlet adapter size?
« on: May 19, 2008 - 07:37:57 PM »
Does anyone know what the thread sizes are for the fuel outlet for the stock fuel pump?  I bought a 1/4" to 6AN aluminum adapter from summit and it barely turns a quarter turn.  Not sure if this might be metric or not.  Just don't wanna strip anything out.

Thanks

 :iagree:
look in the outlet hole, is there a tube seat in there or an empty hole? tube seat= straight thread/steel tube fitting (think brake lines) and empty hole is usually pipe thread.
