Thanks for the response. 1/8 NPT? Could be. The 5/16 is the tube size of the lines, I'm certain that isn't the size of the NPT fitting into the carb or sediment bowl. You are most likely right on the 1/8 NPT. It's been a very long time since I've dealt with pipe, and even then I didn't work with small pipe. Either way, I don't need the one into the carb or sediment bowl, just something that will fit the other end of those two fittings. That said, now that I have pretty reliable information, thanks to you, that it's 1/8 NPT, I may be able to find another fitting that will work and isn't as expensive.
As for the O-rings, yep, they probably will fail. I just need them to hold until I see if I've fixed the spitting and sputtering. I can bend a new line with a longer nut in a matter of a few minutes (after I get the longer nut that is.) I was very careful not to route the lines around anything too hot. I'm fairly certain I routed the lines pretty close to where they were originally (based off of diagrams and use of my brain housing group.)
Thanks for the advice on replacing the old pump. I'm not as worried about it putting crap into the sediment bowl, but certainly wouldn't want it dumping gas into the engine via the timing cover. I will probably rebuild it instead of replacing it though. Especially since winter is coming, this site has the kit, and I'm a bit of a tinkerer.

Today's Featured Article - What Oil Should I Use? - by Francis Robinson. I keep seein this question pop up over and over again in discussion groups all over the web. As with many things there are often several right answers and a few wrong ones. Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
