: I purchased a fuel shut off and when I tried to install it on my 30 coupe it turned out to have a sloghtly larger fitting that the orrigonal one into the tank. I put the old one back and tightned the thing up a bit but wonder why I am having this problem. Do you need to enlarge the hole in the tank to install the "orrigonal" shut off's? The part was made by Antique Ford Parts Thanks Ed
hi, ed,
this one is really easy-!---the supplier sold you an "out of tolerance" part.
its sad, but true---some suppliers contract their parts made by "the lowest bidder".
call the supplier---sometimes a supplier will be perfectly reputable, and simply not realise that they have gotten some bad items, so they will do their best to get you a good item on exchange.
