Jaycee IDA Fuel inlet Question...

[leec]

Just about to convert my IDA's to the Jaycee fuel inlet mod.

The block off bolts for the original fuel inlet do not have any washers to help seal the bolt to the carb body.

Are they required? If so where can i get some?

Hi Lee,

I've just done the same thing, and bought two washers from Think Automotive in Worton Road Isleworth. Effectively they are much the same as the ali washers used on the Webber banjo fittings.

You may be able to do with out, but I didn't fancy it.

Also I had to turn down the end of the blanking bolt as it bottomed out, so be carefull although it may have been specific to my carbs, but it saved a bit of weight!

Thanks Peter,

Congrats on the feature too!

I'm going to use some sealing washers, did you use them on the new fuel inlet too?

Yes I did (from Think also), and as you have no doubt allready realised, they are a different size to the block offs on the side.

The "old blue banger" in a magazine! Its amazing what they publish these days.

Hope to see you at Gary's Picnic. Looks like it could be a good one, if the weather behaves!

Hope you get it all sorted out.

Hi Pete,

do you have details for the washers you used? Part number?
