Hi all,

I have just being fitting a new gasket to the top half of my cav injector pump, was struggling to get the spring back in and knocked the left fuel line above the cav pump and it came loose, I noticed that there isn't any threads to screw it back into, any ideas how to fix or have I totally broken it ? on s positive note I got the spring back in and gasket done many thanks in advance !!

That’s broken.

Use a stud remover to screw it out then insert a new fitting.
hi thanks for reply, I've had a closer look and the big hexagon fitting at the end of the fuel line doesn't have any threads on the lower side only the top where the copper pipe and nut are inserted (the copper pipe has an end that fits over that little black fitment in cav housing, therefore would that large hex fitting be what s snapped off the cav injector ? as the copper pipe end looks fine (hidden under that hex connector) and fits over that black hole in cav pump snuggly, only won't stay there as the hex connector has nothing to screw into to tighten it up. hope that makes sense lol

Yes, because the bottom has snapped off the hex connector.

You'll need to unscrew the broken off bit out of the pump.
