Bob and Mikenash,
Thanks for the heads up as to where to get 9/16" BSF banjo fittings, and thanks for putting up with my dumb questions. I'm afraid that I grew up in the metric era, I'm not a mechanic and have never had anything to do with a Land Rover. That's why restoring this old stuff intrigues me. I get to learn new stuff.
Cheers
Richard

I measured up my banjo bolt that fits my carburettor and it does appear to be BSF 9/16" as its major diameter is 0.56 inches diameter and has 16 TPI thread.
I think the one from the UK looks to be BSP (BSPP) as it has a major diameter of 0.518 inches and has 19 TPI thread.

General Discussion / Lister D Banjo Bolt Size(s)
« on: March 06, 2019, 11:39:25 AM »
Hello all,
I have come across an interesting issue when trying to find a replacement banjo bolt for my Lister D carburettor. The carburettors on my two Lister D carburettors use a banjo bolt with a 16 tpi / 55 deg thread and have a thread OD of 9/16". A replacement banjo bolt I got from the UK has a 19 tpi / 55 deg thread and an OG of 1/2"
My carburettors AMAL float bowl has an ID of 5/8" where the banjo bolt goes through the fuel transfer ring.
The UK banjo bolt only has an OD of 1/2" where it fits into the AMAL float bowl.

So my question is. When did Lister change the size of the inside diameter of the AMAL float bowl connection rings and the banjo bolts? Did they supply the Australian market with a different specification carby/float bowl?
Looking forward to your knowledge.
Cheers
