Bruce, you need it to couple to copper tube?, I assume you do. Will post a few out with the 11 set dial cover on Friday.

Yes, I probably do. I'm not sure if it's a soldered joint or a compression fitting. And the mystery goes on from there. I know the overflow went from that elbow near the rad, along a copper tube under the right, top engine cover angle iron to the front right water can on the back deck. But what about carriers that weren't equipped with those extra water can racks? Later Canadian Carriers (Mk.II and II*) used a Ford CMP type overflow can mounted above the battery, but I'm not sure about early Mk.I* carriers. I'm also not sure how the copper pipe gets from the inside of the engine cover to the outside water can.
Looking at the threads, I agree it's the same as the fuel tank fittings, except there is an adapter fitting that converts the British thread to North American at the back of the fuel tap. From there to the fuel pump it's standard stuff (at least to us Canadians). |

Bruce, follow this link, if you study the pictures you can work out the pipe run.

Bruce, the Mk1 I had before had the copper tube follow the engine cover frome on the top right side out the back and down and simply dumped out the right of the two square holes by the differential. It didn't connect to a catch overflow can.
The old tubing was saved from that project (in two pieces) as reference, when I ran all new pipe when I restored the carrier. I intend to do the same on my current Mk1 project. (unless new information comes to light). |

On my MK2* the overflow expansion tank is on the left hand side on the lower bulkhead below the ducting. On the left in this picture. The original was rotted out so I had a copy made in stainless. Ron
