So I replaced the fuel tank on my NAA with this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NAA9002E-Ford-New-Holland-Tractor-Gas-Fuel-Tank-600-700-Series-701-NAA-Jubilee-/400478462840?pt=BI_Heavy_Equipment_Parts&hash=item5d3e606378
This tank is supposed to fit the NAA tractors and some of the later ones as well like the 600 and 700.
I guess ford moved the shutoff valve from the side to the center later on. This tank came with a bolt to plug the unused hole.
My issue is that my stock NAA shut off valve will not thread into the tank. It binds like it the wrong pitch thread.
Does anybody know if the later ford shutoff valves are a different pitch than the fine pitch ones on the NAA? The shutoff valve the seller sent for the tank seems to be a fine pitch valve, just like the original on the tractor.
Anybody have any insight?
Thanks!
-Dave
