    3/8" carb inlet fitting

     



    hi,
    I was wondering if the carb inlet fittings are any differant than just regular AN fittings? I just got a 3/8" fitting for my carter carb, and it starts to go in and stops after about a half of thread.

    Thanx for the help

    wrap the hose with silver duct tape and cut it with a very thin cutoff wheel mounted on a die grinder.
