Subject: [FlyRotary] Fuel Pump AN Fittings

 

I just purchased two NAPA P5000 fuel pumps and need to adapt them to AN.  I checked Earl's on-line and dind't see a fitting for the low pressure side which requires an O-Ring male 5/8X18 thread which then converts to a -6 AN.  The high pressure side came with a male 3/8 x 24 thread o-ring fitting which I also want to take to and AN-6 fitting...I believe this may be a -6 AN to -6 AN O-ring in the Earl's catalog # 985006.  Has anyone already adapted one of these fuel pumps by chance?  Thanks for any assistance.

Doug;

Are you sure that it is 18 threads/in.; because I’m pretty sure the standard is 16. That would be a -10 0-ring to -6 flare, and a -6 o-ring to -6 flare.  If Earl’s doesn’t have what you need, check http://www.bakerprecision.com or http://www.pegasusautoracing.com.  I’m pretty sure aeroquip makes both of those.
