Fuel tank restoration
Got my fuel tank back from ACME radiator.
They restored it completely inside and out. They use a white coating inside and gray outside . I painted the outside OD Green. It should last for years. Picture of a fuel sender. Where can i get a working fuel sender with float for the top of the tank please ? I have read Dave Schindle , Rob Love and Mike Gurr's comments of Feb 19. I have perused Mac's . I think i have found something. Cheers. Bob

The left side tank looks swell!
Is it time to sort out the front and rear horizontal pressure vent assemblies and their connectors to the specific front and rear vertical pressure vent lines, along with the vertical lines hull clip? Last edited by Michael R.; 25-05-19 at 16:35.

3 way valve fittings
Hi Robert,
I might be way off base but it looks very similar to a Ford CMP truck 3 way valve. Hopefully something that was standardized. If similar size inlets, they are 1/8 NPT male to 1/4 SAE female inverted flare fittings. See attached photo. Note raised portion inside fitting which forms the seal with the double flare. The trucks use 1/4" fuel lines and SAE male inverted flare fittings, same as the fittings on the brake lines. These brake and fuel line fittings are UNS Unified National Special and are 7/16” x 24 (parallel) threads per inch (A standard 7/16” UNF thread has only 20 threads per inch). (Major diameter is 0.4364”) The fittings on the end of the tubing therefore are not NPT threads. Not familiar with the fuel lines on a carrier but if it is 1/4" tubing the above sizes would be correct. Hope this may be of some help. Cheers,
