Massey 35 bits and pieces.

Hi everyone,

Hoping someone can help me, I'm currently doing some odd jobs on my 1958 Massey 35 Petrol/TVO and need some help with thread types, sizing etc.

I'm in the process of sorting the fuel system. The tractor is a Petrol TVO with a Zenith 28G carb. The Tank is from a Diesel as the original started leaking and was pretty knackered. it has worked fine but the fuel lines needed sorting, I've now fitted a tap to the tank which I believe to be 5/8 UNC. I need to know what size/type the thread on the banjo fitting at the carb inlet is, can anyone help?

I've just split the tractor to find an oil leak. The leak is from the input housing gasket which I'll be changing but while i'm there I'm going to change the rear main and layshaft gaskets and main drive plate on the clutch. Only thing is everyone seems to list 2 gaskets for the Layshaft housing. Is there a way to tell which I need or are they both needed?

Finally the clutch, release bearing and flywheel. I have a Dual Clutch set up. Agriline list one main drive plate for a Petrol model. I will measure it to confirm its the correct one before ordering but I can't for the life of me find a Dual Clutch, petrol, release bearing or the flywheel bolt locking tabs. Can anyone help there?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help
Jack
