<p>BONUS! :-) I crawled around inside of the tank and found that on the inside of this adapter there was a 2 inch PVC pipe. one $1.20 cap later and I am able to block this port. Love it when a simple solution appears.</p>

<p>It's an odd beast, not sure what it is but you might check the irrigation or agricultural sprayer guys, they use some fittings that look a little like that.</p>
<p>could you cut it off and use the male threads in behind - looks like they are part of a bulk tank fitting, would a female coupler thread onto that?</p>
