[Alpines] S2 gas gauge

[D W Spearing]

Hi all,

Yes, the brass "T" works fine and it is available in most any hardware store.
I installed it on my S5 over 40 years ago and it is still holding.

I have heard of people using copper compression fittings to connect the
carbs.
Has anyone seen this fix?

Needed help locating an orginal S2 gas gauge. I freed the sending unit from
the evaporating ersgas and years of setting and although they may not be the
correct resistance numbres, at least there is a scale as the float rises and
falls. I wanted to use a S5 gauge but that required wiring in the voltage
stabiliser and knowing the difference in ohms from a S5 sending unit to a
S2 and my Scothish friend prefers we use an orginal gauge which is great with
me- I just want to work on my own projects. Im also having a problem stoping
a
leak between the two S5 carbs- I used an engine from a  S5 parts car which
Hughie had rebuilt but 3 different sets of carbs and they all leaked from the
connecting tube- there has to be a fix Im not aware of. Any suggestions and
help finding a working S2 gas gauge and info on stopping the leak is more
than
appreciated. THANKs in advance,
