Working on a TR3B for a friend. Trying to get it mobile again.
One thing I have noticed is there is a gob of JB weld type of stuff around the fuel pump inlet so I intend to fix that. I have a new pump and was checking the inlet pipe size. The bore where the pipe fits appears to be between 1/4" and 5/16"? Only about 0.020 smaller than 5/16". I was assuming that some pipe should protrude from the olive.
I know the double cone olives from the hardware store are too narrow to for a seal. I have the Enots type olive that has a flat section.
So the question is inlet Bore size after the thread and cone?
