I have a ss feed line for my 14b. Banjo bolt is good, but oil housing end isn't.
It didn't come with the elbow so I went to Home depot and lego'd some pieces together. I got a 3/8 to 1/8, then connected a 1/8 to 1/8 to that piece.
Screwed in the piece to the feed line and put it in. It leaked a little from the feed line and the fitting part so I tightened it more, now the male part is stripped.
Is there a way I can re-thread it? Right now I have a 3/4" fuel line hose over the ss and connecting it to the piece, but it just blew off because it doesn't fit correctly over the swivel part on the ss.
Please help. I read up on helicoil but I dont' completely understand it.
