EK Fuel Tank Drain Plug

Post by rtelford »

Anyone know the thread size of this little bolt, I have accidentally cross threaded it and need to clean it up with a tap.

After all these years I have never removed one of those little plugs .... sorry I have no idea what size it is :roll:
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Masterparts lists them as 1/8" pipe. Probably 1/8"-NPT, though could be 1/8"-BSP.

No, definitely 1/8" NPT.

GM-H rarely used BSP in those days.
