The part number with the plastic pipe which I don't need is STC4213, what I want to know is the size & thread of the bolt.
Anyone know?

Thanks Tony, I'm not prepared to pay the silly Land Rover prices, that's why I'm trying to find the size. I'd settle for just the banjo.
Just a bit out of the box. I don’t know the part or what it looks like or how the pipe fits. (I know what a banjo is)
so it’s only the banjo you need or bolt as well?
Have you any decent motorbike shops in your area? Plenty of banjos on bikes of different sizes.
worth a try.

I only want the banjo. I can buy banjo unions easily enough, I just don't know the correct size. Looks like I'll have to pull one off my car to find the size.

No.
Can’t you use the one off your scrapper?

Sadly, no, the fuel inlet does not have a banjo union, just a straight pipe entry.

How do you guestimate it then?

Either your guess is wrong or I have been sent the wrong part. I think the former

Well, it was a guestimate.
Oh sorry. I complete forgot I replied tor hos thread.
The nut on the transparent feed hose has a 17mm width.
The screw fitting it attaches to feels and looks like a hydraulic type called GE or XGE.
On such metric fitting the hose side thread is always bigger than the thread that is screwed into the part itself.
Therefore an 8mm hose with 17mm nut would require an 8L fitting that has M14x1.5 and M12x1.5.
That was my guesstimation.
It was probably M14x1.5 then? Since the part you got clearly wasn’t M12x1.5.

The part I got based on your information was M12X 1.5 which was incorrect thanks.

Does M14 sound reasonable?

Probably but I have one coming that has been removed from a FIP.

I owe you an apology, it is indeed M12, but seemingly not on a very early FIP I have which has a different fitting to my newer ones.
The search operation has not been working every time I tried to find the thread or i would have posted sooner.
