I think it's 14mmx1.5, but I'm not certain. There's a metric to flare adapter that the pipe connects to. If you figure it out, please post it. I'm looking for a push-lock connection to put in there, myself.

Bosch VE pump and both fuel banjos at filter are 12MMx1.5.

Top outlet on both diaphragm and piston lift-pump are 14MMx1.5.

Bottom inlet on lift-pump is plain old 1/4-NPT.

I have never seen a straight screw-in metric/push-lock fitting that accomplishes it in one piece.

What you will need is whichever one of these JIC metric-male adapters you require to screw into the pump or whatever; then, to get from there to rubber push-lock hose, you will need the appropriate push-lock "swivel", either straight, 45*, or 90*.


That link has the best prices and good quality stuff of anywhere I have been able to find and I have about looked at them all.

I used a 1/4 (npt i think, the pink pakage) to 3/8 barb into the the adapter that was already there. And I got rid of the banjo bolt and put a tee straight off the block one side go's to the pump, and the other to a gauge.
