Need dimensions of air bleed banjo spacer - radiator... lost!
Pretty sure it was lost when it was getting plated, a right pain.

I either need to find one or make one.
I am thinking making one maybe the quickest option if I can get the diameters.
Can anyone help please?
Or have you one just sitting around doing jack?

Need this to start the car and bleed the coolant system.
Part 8

thanks for your HELP!

I believe this is a problem area and the banjo bolt set up was not a good one. Check palms book or grant. The ones orange blossom refer to on eBay address this problem. I bought it myself.myself.myself. Search xjs radiator bleed banjo bolt.
