CockneyRick Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) Want to run a OP gauge from this point (robbed pics) as mine's on the bike ramp & limited access to RH side. Tried undoing it, but the buggers tight & angle of me was bad. So rather than round it off, i'll wait til it's off the ramp. And with that said, i have the gauge & std banjo on the end, but i'd guess it's way too small, so what do i need to attach it? Edited May 16, 2018 by CockneyRick Quote
Gixer1460 Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 Unfortunately stating the obvious - that's the problem when you drill out the key recess - either can't tighten sufficiently or can't ever loosen! You could try using a cold chisel or a punch near the outer radius and knock it round? I change that std bolt for a proper adaptor that has a hex on it, it stays in the case and a 'normal' pipe / hose fitting attaches to it. Quote
CockneyRick Posted May 16, 2018 Author Posted May 16, 2018 Like the cam link converter type? Mine's not tampered with, still got the hex head. Just didn't want to force it at the angle i was trying to work from & totally round it off! Quote
colinworth79 Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 those plugs are normally a bastard to get out . I end up with a centre punch on the edge tapping it round . You could drill out the standard plug then get a peice of hex bar and put the required thread in the middle and tig weld it to the original plug . Quote
CockneyRick Posted May 16, 2018 Author Posted May 16, 2018 Sounds like a lot of hard work! I'm guessing that there are adapters to reduce it from whatever size it is to M10x1.25 Female? Same as the cam to cam link adapters? Quote
