Guest Commodore Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Maybe it's spelled Bijur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlanD Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I would certainly make this if I had a lathe.This is the fuel coupling to a Johnson Model A Carburetor.Still looking.Thanks for the responses.Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhigdog Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) Assuming it's soldered to the tubing, send me a sample or a dimensioned drawing and I'll make one for you. No charge other than shipping bhigdog1@ptd.net Edited October 18, 2012 by Bhigdog (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Braverman Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 My Franklin uses a similar, but different fitting. Totally unavailable. Reuse what you have and scrounge around for other used fittings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mochet Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 This was a common tube fitting, but no longer made, as far as I can tell. It's been replaced commercially by compression fittings. My '13 Metz uses it on the fuel line connection to the gas tank. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AlanD Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Just got it in the mail and I was excited to try it out. It's just beautiful isn't it.And it's a perfect fit. I was able to find a nut that fit but it was a bit longer than the original, so I gave Bob dimensions to match it and he did an excellent job!I think I might put it on the mantel in the living room and admire it a few days.Thanks again Bob! Very fine machining. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
