I'm currently under way on a body off restoration of my '63 TR4 and every nut and bolt has been removed so far with the sxception of one. The gas tank is original to the car and it's vented. The vent pipe needs replacing but the banjo bolt has snapped..partly due to the fact that's it's hollow I guess and can't handle much torque but I see that there is no car specific banjo bolt available for the 4 and the thought occurred to me maybe because it's soldered in and not threaded. I do see a fine bead of solder around the base of the washer..I can't imagine it not being threaded but then stranger things happen to me all the time so I don't panic over surprises..Anyway, before I start drilling with the hopes of retapping, has anyone had one of those bolts out on your TR4 vented tank?
I've had this car for 40 years and a lot of stuff I can work my way around blindfoled but I'm never afraid to ask stupid questions.
I'm new to this forum so I'm sure I will prove that out as I try to get this thing back together..Ha
Thanks
