I own my grandfather's 47 Cub. He bought it new. The threads for the fuel inlet fitting are stripped. Can't stop it from leaking. Can this be repaired?

[Barnyard]

It can be helcoiled. It is 1/2-20 thread.

If you're not confident in your ability to helicoil the fuel inlet, they probably can do it. Not sure what they would charge.

Not sure if there is going to be the Mid-Maine Cubfest this year. Last year it was July 7th in Exeter, ME.

Hi Peter, That's good to know. I can surely re-coil that fitting. I will chk out TM Tractor Parts, too. Thx, Kim Bachelder Edgecomb ME.
