Does anyone know the length for a Mk1 (fuel changeover valve is near the oil cooler outlet)?

British MK-I 9/40 dated flexible fuel hose measures +- 19-1/4”. Canadian MK-I* 1942 dated flexible fuel hose measures +- 19-3/4”. Canadian MK-I* 1943 dated flexible fuel hose measures +- 20”. Canadian made ‘three-way’ fuel valves are fitted with three adapters, CTL 3485B. There are at least three versions of this valve: early Canadian MK-I* carriers used a British supplied valve, followed by a Canadian made valve C01UC 106011 ‘B’ series that attached the fuel hose ‘straight’ on, followed by the ‘C’ series that attached the fuel hose at an angle, allowing the fuel hose to be routed without fowling against the transmission top hat. These valves are not interchangeable with the ‘two-way’ valve found on the C31UCW NO-2 MK-II* carrier. Each flexible fuel hose was supported by a ‘Clip - fuel pipe and fittings, CTL 7212. The clip was fastened to the transmission using the existing transmission top bolt(s). Last edited by Michael R.; 26-12-18 at 23:31. |

Thanks for all the informationmstion. I can now get some pipes made up at my local hose place. The info on the valve was also very valuable, I will go and check which valve I have.

Their (Chilwell) illustrated parts manual may be more instructive than the Canadian FUC-03 as some dimensions may be given along with part numbers. Last edited by Michael R.; 29-12-18 at 14:55. |

Continuing with the last page from the British Chilwell parts manual: the details for the part numbers 54, 55, and 56 of this illustration show sizes for nipple, nut, tubing as well as length for that portion of rigid fuel line from the valve/tap to the fuel pump.

Thank you, that answered my next questioned well; which was ‘what’s the screw size for the fuel pick up?’. From the parts list they are 2BA x 3/8”.
Is that the Fuel tank strap setup for a UK Carrier, as it seems different to the images I have seen of canadian tanks?

See pages 200 and 201 of FUC03 for illustrations of the strap assemblies, a portion of the MK-I* strap assembly illustration reproduced below . . . In the ‘Parts’ section of the forum you can find a posting from a UK based MLU member who makes some replacement carrier parts, including the difficult to source Canadian style MK-I* fuel tank turnbuckles. . . .
