Title: carb needle valve o rings
Post by: captain pugwash on 13 March 2020, 12:20:17 pm
guys ,just wanted to ask where is the best place for the carb needle valve o rings, as i have trawled all the threads till my head hurts and i think i might a have problem with these
by the looks of several posts its wise to replace if i have the carbs off


i have called fowlers and they want £40 per carb for the complete lot ,just wanted to see if the o rings can be bought on there own


TIA jason

Hi Jason,


Do you mean the O ring for this?
I’ve got some I can send you.
As Ogri kindly let me have some I’m happy to pass some on.

Just noticed that when Ogri kindly sent me some O rings he included the bag with Supplier details and O ring dimensions.
Whilst the Captain is sorted, maybe the next person might find this useful.
Hopefully it’s the right bag, or it may spark an interesting conversation with Kent Bearings!  :rollin

Looks like they are selling them for less than £4 for 10 on Ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/7-5-x-1-5mm-Nitrile-70-ORing-10x/141201450524?hash=item20e043261c:g:iX0AAOSwUQlasATa (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/7-5-x-1-5mm-Nitrile-70-ORing-10x/141201450524?hash=item20e043261c:g:iX0AAOSwUQlasATa)
