Advice required, Jodel 1050 fuel pressure sensor fittings

Post by geoffwright » Sun Jan 02, 2011 11:23 pm

Have 0-200 engine, Marvel Schebler carb, long facet fuel pump.
Flexible hose with banjo fitting on the facet pump outlet.
Ideally, would like to remove banjo bolt and replace with another bolt that has 1/8 BSP or NTP fitting in the end of the bolt. The pressure sensor is BSP but I can source a BSP to NTP adaptor.
The carb has double banjos fitted. The pressure sensor would fit in there too, if I could find a threaded banjo bolt.
Confused with AGS/NPT/AN/BSP fittings. (even metric on the Jodel).
Any suggestions please?

Suggest you join the Yahoo Jodel group and post the question there. It has a good record of sorting out this form of query.

Seems like I need to make my own banjo bolt. Can anyone make it for me?

Hi Geoff,

Your best bet is to try Austin at Breighton. Austin has a tidy machine shop in one of the units behind the club house and can make just about anything.

Trust all is well with you. Have changed mine to an alternator, so have a spare delco regulator should you need one.

Regards
