Help Please. Anyone got any ideas on sourcing a petrol tap for the small diameter outlet on the tank of a jubby delux -- the one with the right angle outlet to feed above the tinware. It looks odd with the straight tap and a feed pipe outside the tinware. Thanks.

You do see the orriginal Ewarts tap on E bay now and then, they can be re-built.

My Navigator has the original 90 degree fuel tap but even then the fuel pipe can become trapped by the side panel and cause fuel starvation. This point about fuel starvation was commented upon by an original road tester back in 1959 so it's not new. The best way in my opinion is to point the outlet towards the front of the bike and use an extra long fuel pipe in a nice arc to connect to the Amal carb.
It's fairly neat that way as the rubber pipe is under the tank and you can't have a trapped fuel pipe.

I think they list the 90 degree outlet in the NOCshop.
