Hey guys, the rover 3.9 efi system has an odd thread on fuel fitting for the fuel line, what have you guys done to connect the fuel line? is there some type of threaded nipple i can get so i can just use some push on fuel line?

I'm not sure of the thread but i cut the nut off and use high pressure EFI rated hose.
The tube under the nut is larger od than the rest of the tube(thats why the nut won't slide off)

From receollection I believe the thread is something like 12 mm x 1 mm. I searched high and low looking for a solution with ho success, everything seemed to 1.5 mm. Ending up like Ian and carefully cut off the nut, leaving the nipple intact and used a normal clamp
