I have a Tee (an826-6) that tightens via 3/8" tapered pipe thread into the gascolator.
The upright leg of the Tee must be vertical to mate with fuel pump.
Unfortunately the pipe thread goes from loose to fully tight in an arc of about 90 degrees which does not happen to bring the Tee vertical as needed.
There is no room for an adapter.
Is there any way to deal with this that I am not seeing?
Teflon tape would do it but I do not want to use it for the usual reason (it leaves debris in the threads)
Any comments appreciated.
