Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 10, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 10, 2013 Its a barbed hosetail. Be careful with any measurements as I think they measure using the inside diameter. Also ideal if you have a broken airbox air pipe connection - the type molded on that snap off when someone has tried to pull off an air tube.

Ttaskmaster Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 There's always one SMARTARSE!!!!! If you're going to order a part, is it not a good idea to know what the suppliers call it? Call it what you like, Scottoiler will be far more efficient if you use their terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wild foamy Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I always thought they were threaded jets, just bought some off Ebay for my Mitsubishi lpg conversion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy xs Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 interesting fact I learn't a few days ago about LPG a plumber on site were I was working was saying how it heavier than air and doesn't mix with air, if you get a leak on say a boat for instance it build's up at the bottom and can't escape. He was saying he had just completed a coarse where the instructor told him you have to bail it out with a bucket he said you'll look a proper dick but that's how to do it, I thought this was a windup so I painted LPG on a bucket and gave it him as a present, to convince us he wasn't joking he filled the bucket up with LPG waited about 30 secs then threw a match in, wow it was still in there alright. don't think i'll be messing round with that stuff looks really dangerous to me, hope you know what your doing foamy wouldn't want you getting blown up before I get my T shirt.

wild foamy Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 indeed it is heavier than air, hence why LPG boats have extractor fans in the bilges to purge them before starting incase there is a leak , i briefley looked in to converting a 5.7L mercruiser in a fletcher speedboat until i realised i didnt have the cash .

dt502001 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 LPG and carbon monxide are both Heavier than air, thats why you shuold never lay on the floor to chech for leaks when running a eng,monxide builds up in your system never to leave.
