Banjo bolts on a diesel

[Mick Oz]

I have a 1956 TEF currently a non runner.
Can anyone tell me are the return fuel lines connector bolts from each diesel injector a generic item or when I loose them will I be up for complete new injectors.
I notice that some are single return and some are double. Ive called them Banjo bolts in the past is there another name.

Banjo bolt/fitting is the correct name, Mate. Blackwoods say they have them, although maybe not exactly what you require.

The one on the left is a DOUBLE banjo bolt & the right is just a single.. To bad you weren't closer, I have a pile of um..
Don't forget to get the gaskets.. 2 per single.. 3-4 per double..

When I took them off there were no gaskets, just a single copper washer on each.

Hopefully I will beable to get an equivalent from Bolt masters, they are my closest.

The gasket are the copper washer, those bolts are to buy at a MF dealer or tractor/diesel workshops.

Keep in mind, you are suppose to replace the copper washer once it's used.

If you don't, you may want to keep a few around, to fix any leaks you have.

If your in a pinch for the crush washer, heat it up to red heat with a propane torch. Drop it in water, or just let it cool.

Copper softens easily and repeatedly.

My experience has been, the used copper washers "crush" and aren't thick enough after use, not that they get hardened...
