Sibster - okay, you reckon to wind a 3/8NPT in and I should be fine? Cheers

Damo - that's why I sent you approx half a metre, instead of the 30cm

Rich,

Took the plug out of a block in the workshop and measured it properly, it is 3/8 x 18 npt, learn something new every day...I have always asumed they were 3/8 x 19 bspt. A bsp fitting will go on no probs ive used them loads of times with no leaks but in future i'll be using 3/8 npt to -10 adapters...goodridge part no. AN816-10-06

Best regards

Ian
