Fuel line orings
« on: May 31 2011, 01:02:48 PM »
I need to replace the orings in the fuel line, where it attaches to the FPR, etc. I have a notrile Oring kit, will these work? Is there a specific type of oring needed?

I don't think it's the material but the size. I get mine at NAPA as a set. I'll dig up the part# tomorrow if you want.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

I just can't reconcile "Buna-N" parts which appear to work well VS Nitrile gloves - which so far have been rather crappy IMHO.
