Repro Petrol Tap

Post by LuisPaz »

Be careful with this repro petrol tap. Bad threads and Easy to broke!
I found an original ewarts to put in my WNG.

Looks like you will also need an adapter as the tank thread on the Ewarts you have is smaller than the thread in the petrol tank ?

Cheers

Hi John!

Thank you for your offer!
But I will keep this one that I bought here in my country.
There is excessive shipping cost between Argentina and UK... :(
I live in the ass of the world!!

it's £17 to ship to you ?

I could probably sell you a few more bits to make worth it ?
