Hi Guys,

Just interested in knowing the two O-ring sizes for the brass elbow type fuel tap on the Victa 18's.

Many thanks

Steve.

If you have the tap and it is apart it should be pretty simple to run a vernier caliper over the O ring slots to get the size, or just take it along to an auto parts place and trial fit some from a kit. I have one of those taps here, if I get a chance to pull it apart I'll take some measurements for you.

Okay, the smaller O ring measures around 9mm OD, 6mm ID and 1.5mm wide, the other wider one is a square section rather than an a round O ring having the same ID/OD but being 2mm wide. All measurements are as close as I can tell given this tap is old and they are probably worn and hard.

Sorry for the late response aussietrev, have aquired O rings to the size stated and seem to be doing the job, many thanks.

Regards

Steve.
