Nuts?

[MattW]

Specifically the ones which are used to fasten the fuel pump inspection door on an 11xx. I'm swapping my plastic tank for a new steel one but I've just remembered that the plastic tank uses machine screws into threaded bosses in the tank whereas the steel tank has little studs. My new tank didn't come with nuts so I'll have to buy some.

Anyone happen to know the size?

I am doing the conversion the other way round, I am fitting a plastic tank, Matt could you tell me the length of the bolts that hold the pump plate in ? also do you want to swap the front rubbers?

I'll be doing the swap this weekend Stewart - I'll measure a bolt and let you know. Thanks for the offer, but I've ordered new rubbers - I'll be keeping the plastic tank as a 'just in case' spare (more junk to put in the loft )

I know what you mean, I will be putting the steel tank up there too, if I can get room amongst the six tents, eight assorted sleeping bags.......................
