Hello. yes. this is a common item. Remove it and take it to your local hardware store to get a replacement. Also pick up a tube of plumber's pipe dope to coat the threads before you install the new one. This will prevent any leaks. Joe

please rate my answer as very helpful. Joe

Scorpion SC950 Generator. Hi, I am wanting to know the size for the female fuel Thread for it. Thanks Keith

Question edited for clarity.
Question moved from Cars and Trucks to Generators.

Thar sort of information is never available especially on such a vintage machine, and you don't tell 'why'?

You would measure the diameter with an internal Vernier gauge or external on the male connector and then use a thread gauge for the thread pitch.

Or you buy a new tank or a new tap.

Water heater leaking from under the collar that the T&P valve screws into, but it isnt leaking from the valve itself, or the connection between the valve and the tank. Fixable, or need a new tank?

if it is the threads leaking., you can #1 shut the water heater down or turn it to pilot. #2 carefully loosen the top connector to the valve, #3 remove valve #4 apply teflon tape, usually 3 raps nO more than 5 to the male threads #5 carefully reassemble. turn from pilot to normal. if the water heater continues to leak it is possible that you observed leakage from the valve but the tank itself needs replaced. hope this helps.

Hoover f7430-900 wont desperse water from carpet attatchment

I' used to have a carpet cleaner that did the same thing.
The method they used to stop & start the water spray was a pinch system. When the trigger is pulled the clamp releases and the tube is no longer being pinched Or so that is what is supposed to happen but if it has been sitting a long time (witch is always) the tube gets stuck together where the clamp mechanism pinches the tube.
You can either squeeze the tube from the sides to get it to stop sticking or cut a small piece of and replace it using 2 (straight - Male/Male line connectors) to plug it back together.
That way you can do it when ever you need to, only replacing 3 inches or so.
It is usually just fish tank tubing you can buy at any hardware or pet store with the (straight - Male/Male line connectors) they should have in the same area of the store.
Also as I tell everyone - I love this site but youtube is another good site for helpful videos on most anything you can think of.
They should be paying me for all the advertising I do for them. lol
Good Luck

I use a Wolf Big Blaster 2 and I need to source a replacement male to male plastic reducing nipple from the Aluminium water inlet pipe to the external hosepipe connection.

Any decent HYDRAULIC pipe service centre should be able to help or scan eBay as many such companies offer adaptors and spares.

How to bypass air conditioning compressor on 2002 ford taurus?

You would need to replace the compressor with an A/C illiminator bracket/pulley, you cannot just put a shorter belt as it would still make contact with the a/c pulley, at least on a 3.0L OHV version.

Gas is barely flowing-used to hear hiss before I lit. Tried replacing pressure valve and got a new tank of gas. Also disassembled manifold and cleaned out all burners.

I had the same problem years ago with an old charbroil and ended up fixing by replacing the threaded female gas connector on the regulator with one of the old style male inside threaded type. This is the connector that connects the hose/regulator to the propane tank.

My danby air conditioner/dehumidifier model dpac 8399-4 leaks water all over the floor and never fills the holding tanks what can I do to fix this problem?

Probably needs cleaning. I assume it is on a level surface. Water drips from the evaporator coil into a collection tray of some type and then drains into the holding tank, this tray is either broken or the outlet is plugged.
Good Luck,
Gilsh
