[Healeys] Help

[Harold Manifold]

Ray,

I have learned the hard way about different thread sizes on my Healey and
would like to help others avoid the same mistakes I made. My car is a 1960
BT7 and I have 5 left over original knurled nuts. I also have a 3BA tap a
friend has lent me. All 5 knurled nuts, two small and three large, thread
smoothly onto the 3BA tap.

I hope this helps... Harold
