Default air power tank fitting

http://www.airpowernet.com/twe3/prod...roducts_id=302

is this suitable for a wren 160 ? i am concerned that the ID is a little on the small side at around 3mm, the clunk that goes with it has a similar size ID has anyone used this sucessfully with a 160 sized engine ?
thanks

I used the Tamjets one on mine as the brass tube is 4mm ID, it allowed me to use 6mm festo tubing throughout, which also has an ID of around 4mm. I've seen 160's flameout when there was to much restriction in the fuel system, because of using small bore tubing.
