M16 x 1.0 (very fine) left hand thread, although the fuel tap should come with the adapter collar to convert from the lht of the tap to the right hand thread of the tank.

Thanks. At least that saves me money :agree:

You see what i have is a tank with a female M12 x 1.5 thread and the only fuel tap i couls get is a straight one which sticks too far down. What i wanted was a 90 deg tap that would tuck the fuel pipe out the way so i thought a Fantic one plus a male male nipple would do the trick. :D

Would but i cant get a male M12 x 1.5 to M16 x 1.0 oh well anothe cunning plan bites the dust :D

Thanks for the advice anyway.
