Not alot more to report on. Im currently helping the old man building a house, fukin hard work. I admire builder after doing some myself. Im out of time and toooooooo much work to do on the car so im am getting panel shop to paint the base and clear coat. It would probably turn out better this way.

Hey Kris,

How's it all going? You like you have been busy in the off season!!

I have too. I have dropped the ball a bit on my ET, as I have started a new job. But Ill be finishing it off in the new year ready for a couple of track days.

I have an old 910, but I am not sure of what you are after. Send us a PM and ill take some snaps for you. I will be away from today until new years -- on holidays water skiing!!

Thats an everyday Banjo fitting except kinda in reverse,
Same as the water cooling banjo on your turbo.

Youd fit a washer, the Banjo itself with a barb and then a washer and a nut to secure it.

Screw that plated steel bit out and you can then wind in any kind of fitting you like.

If the Pirtek guy was unable to identify that, hes a brainless knob and NEVER go back to him. Hey didnt he even put a thread guage along it?? O..M..G!

ANY motorsport shop will be able to supply you with whatever fittings you like. Along with Hydraquip, Enzed, Hose Doctor et al. Its all off the shelf stuff and not expensive...sheesh, the Pirtek guy....what a dick!

Thanks evan...i didnt think it would be difficult, but the only issue with the banjo is that the whole in the end of the pump fitting goes into the pump.
Id be interested in seeing what paul smith purchased, i think he has a 910 running on his exa

ill try enzed

Cheers

I just tried to take pics for you but the camera is crap. I've bought a new one and it should arrive Tuesday. I can get a couple then. Pirtek stock a fitting that works and I then added a brass hose fitting. Fuel line now just clamps on.

Paul, so you just unscrewed the fitting that it comes with and fitted a new one that you then screwed a brass barbed fitting into? Photos would be great.

Cheers,

No. There's a fitting that screws on to the one in your pic. I then screwed a barb over that. Ended up with 2 fittings.
