bad quality aftermarket fuel rails, what can i do ?
 
3 Attachment(s)
Hy all

finally i got my new set of fuel rails for doing a return fuel setup.

After i have checked the rails i found out that there are some small blades inside of the center whole...

For details pls check the pics...

I am from Germany so its not easy to send it back, therefore i hope u know any solution for smoothing the rail at the inside of the center whole..

Thanks a lot
Achim

not sure what you are seeing. can you clean it out with a wire brush or something?

You can have a machine shop chase the treads and clean the burrs and clean the sides

Ya it just looks like some burs on the machining in the aluminum.

You can have a machine shop or mechanic shop chase the thread, or get the correct size tap-and-die (thread chaser) and do it yourself. Shouldn't be a big deal.

also an Emory cloth would help for delicate deburring also.
