F2 tank with K6 carbs, problem

(1/5) > >>

Trigger:
Just finishing off a little project and came across a problem. The fuel tap on the F2 tank fouls the choke lever once the fuel pipe is on. I know on the F1 the tap had a rear fitting for the pipe but, though I have a F1 tap, it is a different thread. Have tried a reverse outlet tap but, the pipe bends up against the rocker cover.

Anyone come across this problem before and any ideas on how to get round it ?

Probably because the F2 had pd carbs. Will the F1 tap accept the securing nut so you could fit the F1 tap into the gland nut from the F2 tap.

Different size gland nut  ;)

Might have to use a pingel tap Graham..

hairygit:
Unscrew the gland nut completely from both taps, then see if the thread sizes on the tap bodies are the same, if they are put the F1 body into the F2 nut.
