Size of poly Blazer tank fitting anyone?

[XXL]

For those of you with the poly Blazer gas tank, yours probably came with several smaller plastic fittings-- two on the filler neck side and one on the other. Well, I can't find the two I never used... and I need to pick up one so I can install some kind of charcoal canister. Has anyone got a spare one of these fittings laying around? Can you measure it so I can go a-lookin' for one locally?

Thanks in advance,

Kenneth

XXL,
I just got a poly tank in from GMCPaul today. The male fittings are bronze. Are these the ones to which you refer? Tell me exactly what you're looking for and I'll try to get a measurement.

Hmmm... I thought mine were plastic, but it's been a while... and they may come in both types in the tank kits. If you look on the side opposite the filler neck, there is one threaded hole (maybe the size of my small finger or so). That's the one I'm looking for. There are two such holes on the filler neck side as well, which look to be the same size too. I'm using one for a return line from the filler neck and the other one is plugged up. I was going to add a vent of some sort--- charcoal canister or something, in hopes of being able to fill the tank faster than the 15 minute ritual I go through now.

Thanks,

Kenneth

Are you looking for the diameter of the hole? The length of the fitting? The diameter of the fitting?

Let me know and I'll measure it when I get home tonight.

Oops... sorry. I'm looking to find one of those fittings. So hole dimension would be good.

That canister is for polution controll only. The tank wont't fill any faster. You need a vent hose use one of the unused holes and run a vent hose from it. As for the size I think the were 1/2 inch you can mesasure the it's not that tought (not being rude)

Hope that helps.
