    Scott,
    looks ideal, and about as cheap as it gets for a Dino.

    Hi Synchro,

    Can I just check with you if you bought the 1/4" tap and did this fit the Dino block?

    Many thanks.

    I did buy it and it fit perfectly. I ended up getting it at Napa. I think I bought an extra one and if you cant find one I will be glad to send it to you.

    These are standard drains for air compressors.

    BTW, one problem is that people tighten these far too tight then later nearly destroy it when they need to open the drain. Be gentle

    Thanks for the very kind offer champtc. I have just bought two from jaydog512 on ebay for the grand total of $5.98. :))

    That must be the cheapest part I have ever bought for this engine!!

    I'll let you know how I get on.

    Many thanks.
