Screw in fuel connectors
Right, I have a messy fuel setup atm, my fuel tank has an 8mm barb on it, my pump needs a 12mm pipe, so right now it's going
Tank > 8mm hose > 8-12mm adaptor > 12mm hose > Pump > 8mm hose.
Which sucks, I'd like to replace the connector from the tank with a 12mm one. Obviously, I'd rather not have to weld on a used fuel tank
(that and I can't weld alu) and I'm feeling cheap, so a new tank is out of the question.
Aim is
Tank > 12mm hose > Pump > 8mm hose.
So are there any decent (non-leaky) screw in fuel connector type things that'd do the job?
Additional thought: are the dodgy alu-welding stick things up to the job of sticking a new barb on?
Cheers

Getting a swirlpot with a 12mm outlet and a low pressure lifter pump to fill it might be the least explosive solution.

I did the same using a fuel filter with 8mm in 12mm out
