Resolved Looking for part #MD314114. Offering $100 for anyone who has one they can send to me.

[Kvkenamond]

I've looked everywhere for this part and it's the last part I need to put my motor back in and get my 2G running but every time I order it, the order gets canceled because nobody has it. It's the joint that threads into the block which a banjo fitting from a turbo coolant line threads into (like a bolt with internal threads aswell). I've seen the price range online from $30-$50 so I'm just going to throw $100 out for it because I guess these things are few and far between now. If you've got one lying around or know someone with a donor motor that still has it please let me know and I'd be happy to talk.

Darn it! My bad, thanks for the heads up, it's been a long time since I've had to deal with that fitting.

I might just have to get the bold and drill and tap it I guess.. I know in the past there were a few people on here with junk yards with eclipses but I guess they aren't here anymore.. I don't have FB so I can't look there..

The way of the world these days.

Doesn’t seem like a difficult piece to make. McMaster-Carr for a 3/8” BSPT plug with hex head and drill and tap for M14 x 1.5. Worst case, you can always piece something together for it.

Shoot, I’m with you 19clips90, if ya gotta have it, ya gotta have it and I’m sure I could fashion something usable in the shop..

If you need this piece and want it for a $100 as stated in the thread I’ll look tonight.

I just looked I have at least 2 attached to motors still. Maybe more if start looking in totes.

Pm if you want one

I've got one on a block right now too I could sell if they're going for that kind of premium. PM me if interested.

Ya I'm not paying that much like I said earlier I'll just make it.. the parts are out there to make one so that's what I'll do..

i have a question.. it says 3/8 male... the male is ALOT larger than a 3/8" bit. help me make since in my mind please as it says m14 1.5 female and 3/8" male.. the m14 itself is so much larger than a 3/8s..

It’s a 3/8” pipe thread. The 3/8” does not indicate a diameter in this case. Major diameter is actually around 5/8”. The below may be a little crude but it’s start. Google BSPT thread dimensions and you’ll find plenty of information.

In short, pipe threads do not follow the same nomenclature as regular fasteners.

In decimals, an M14 nominal diameter is 0.551 inches where 3/8 bolts are 0.375 inches. Note the stated tap drill size for the 3/8 BSPT thread is 14.75mm, or 0.581 inches - bigger than an M14.

Side note, not sure why it shows 0.0507 inches as the conversion there, but 0.581 inches is accurate.

Here’s some things I wrote on this subject previously, for reference, from this thread:

Unfortunately with pipe threads, the "1/8" or "1/16" isn't designating any physical characteristic of the fitting itself. It is all based on a standard that uses and follows sizing for piping; see: http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/ansi-steel-pipes-d_305.html

BSPT and NPT are nearly the same size. The main differences between them are the angle of taper, the thread profile geometry, and (sometimes) the thread pitch or number of threads per inch. See: https://www.valvesonline.com.au/references/threads/
