Carrier fuel pipes

[Lynn Eades]

The Brit image in Post#9 is of a later era Brit construction. The change tap with the two thumb screws is from a Brit MkIIIw carrier. Not sure of the change date to the later strap arrangement. The earlier strap arrangement from Canadian and British varies little. The differences being spot welded strap ends verses small rivets. The turnbuckle threads are different. (Brit=Brit. Std. Canadian= UNF) The use of tank breather pipes are used with plain fuel caps, while tanks with no breather pipes use caps with the valve in them. Tank end panels are impressed with a cross and are found with the cross convex and concave.
