Hi all,
Does anyone know the thread die required to clean up a dodgy thread on a YZ125 aluminium tank?
Any advice appreciated, Mark

Fuel cap? Or fuel tap?
Buy a good metric thread file...
You'll be amazed...

Thanks Vandy and Frank. I will have a go with a file first, then did around for a die if needed.
Have a great easter, Mark

I can sell you a new original type machined spigot that you weld to the tank. Ring 0412747729
