Thanks Bill. The tank has a compression fitting but there is that pipe from
the connector to the shut-off.  That must be what it is.

 

Reminder for all you sexagenarians and septuagenarians:  roller skates are
for younger people who don't have brittle bones !!!

Andrew,

Assuming it actually was a part of that car, I have had many bits that came
with cars that had no relation to it, it could only be the fuel line that
goes from the tank to the pump, or cut-off tap in older cars.  Looking at a
Moss TR2-4 catalog, see item #11 on page 20.

Best Regards,

Bill

Subject: [TR] TR3 gas pipe

 

With the acquisition of another car came what looks like a gas pipe (wider
than a brake pipe), about 5 feet long with an upturn at one end.  It has
flares and nuts at both ends.

 

I thought all the gas fittings on  the TR3 were compression in nature (using
an olive) ?

 

By the way, what a thrill to get a car out of California:  original floors,
sills and rockers.  Rear apron and rear wheel arches all solid and all the
captive nuts intact.  Only rust through is a small area in the trunk floor.
Thanks to Bill Beecher (broken ankle not withstanding) for putting me in
touch with this gem.

 

Andrew
