O ring price from stealer

[Trader]

The Canadian dealer wants $3.65 per for the O Rings for the valve cover bolts.

Partsshark in the US wants $3 per

After taxes that's about $65 C. just for o-rings!!!!

does anyone know what size these are?

Are they "special" or would standard o-rings work?

[MiCarl]

I think the answer is that they're special. They do more than seal the bolt - they also put the proper force on the cover to properly seal the gasket. If you use something the wrong thickness or the wrong elasticity you could cause other problems.

 

I share your pain. I too have laid down a pile of money for a few bits of rubber.

Thanks, but this is the place where we had a group buy on carb diaphragms a while back and I noticed that they carry a large selection of replacement parts for the Ventures. It is a good site to book mark for future reference.
