Anne, there is one that I used to get from NAPA that fits, but I since 
changed adapters as it was not as easy to get as the 1374.  I went and 
bought an adapter at the local hardware store - a plumbing fixture. You 
could take the existing adapter into NAPA and and ask them for one that 
fits. I believe the one I got had a metric thread but actually fitted 
perfectly - no damage to the threads.
