need a source for carburator "O" rings
I am rebuilding a motor that is no longer in production and parts are not available. the only thing I need to get it going is a set of "O" rings for the high and low speed needle valves. I tried some from Lowes, which were the correct diameter, but were too thick. Does anyone have a suggestion on where to buy "O" rings? PS the engine is a Magnum Pro 45.
Thanks |

Go to a decent Napa auto parts store. They usually have a good selection of metric and sae size o rings in stock.

Re: need a source for carburator "O" rings
If you go to napa, make sure that the o rings are copatable with the fuel that you use in your engine. Most automotive stuff is petroleum resistant. Glow needs alcohol resistant seals. Some are dual purpose now due to ethanol, but don't count on it. It' just like tygon and silicone tubing for gas and glow. Just a precautionary thought.Don
