Tap/thread size to add 4mm fitting to direct port manifold
I have an Aquamist 6 cylinder direct port manifold. I should have checked earlier but I want to order some parts this morning. I am going to add a 7th jet to the manifold (on the end cap on my lathe) to feed a 0.3mm jet at the compressor housing of my turbo setup. I believe its an M5 thread yes? Does anyone know the pitch so I can order a tap set?
Thanks, Jon |
Re: Tap/thread size to add 4mm fitting to direct port manifold
The aquamist jet thread is M8 x 0.75mm
You can order the tap from : www.aquamist-direct.com If you have room, it is better to order a 1/8NPT jet adaptor. The 1/8NPT is quite common in the US, so save yourself a few dollars by not ordering the M8 x 0.75mm tap (quite expensive) Richard |

Do you have a 6-port hex manifold already? The 7th jet can be installed at the blanked-off end, you just need a 1/8 to 4mm fitting. I also recommend an inline checkvalve to stop the fluid commutating between the two location.

A 6-port manifold has 6x M5 and 2x 1/8 BSP (each end, one is blanked off). Why don't you replace the blanked off end for your 7th jet? All you need is a 896-397 fitting.
