Where Can I Buy Some O-Rings?

Post by DeeJ »

I want to replace the O-rings on my gk76a to confirm that the problem is that.

Where do I buy them from?

Cheers

You can buy a mixed case of O-rings from most hardware type places. I got quite a comprehensive kit from a pound shop. Did my carb refurb a treat :grin:

Dont by the pound shop o'rings as they are made of nitrile. You need Viton o'rings that are fuel proof.
I supply a kit for £11 posted and they are as Mr Suzuki intended.

Do it mate, I should have got some from VV, but I went with a local supplier and just ended up with more hassle.

Mine are Viton. OK, there's only 50 viton O-rings in a pack instead of 250 nitrile ones but they are still from the pound shop :mrgreen:

Super find! any particular shop as viton o'rings cost a small fortune from the manufacturers.

It was an Indian run pound shop in Blackburn called Pound Craze. Their stock is constantly changing so it's a case of get what they've got. I'll pop in over the weekend and stock up if they have them again :mrgreen:
