Where can I find a kawasaki O ring for a fuel tap? |
I have been servicing my bike and have accidently taken out the o ring on my fuel tap and broke it I cant find one anywhere but if you know any good stores online or otherwise I would appricate it the bike is a kawasaki a1p 636 2002 its like a rubber o ring i was thinking about putting rubber bands it it's place what do you think ? Just goto napa auto they will match it upto something that will work. Only be couple bucks. Or maybe down to your local harborfreight pick up this set.It might have it. Source(s): http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/di... don't use rubber bands they will fall apart and block your fuel system. take the broken o ring to any auto parts store they will be able to find one that will fit. Don't use rubber bands they will fail and petrol wil leak out. In the past I have used shops with such names as "seals and bearings" who supply items like this off-the-shelf for all kinds of applications. They can be useful when it comes to wheel bearings and the like too. If you are in the UK go to Halfords........they sell little boxes of assorted O rings. The rubber band idea has been well enough answered already - don't ! If you are in the UK then look in your local yellow pages for Bearing Services Ltd (BSL) and go there. They will very likely be able to help you out plus they also sell o-ring kits, which have lengths of material, blades and special bonding agent that allows you to make up any-oring that you need. Loctite for example are a supplier of such a kit. The obvious question is why don't you just order one up from Kawasaki? Very often fuel tap 'o-rings' are strange shapes so a standard off the shelf round shape ring will not fit. Kawasaki will be the quickest and easiest bet. type "robinsons foundry" into your search engine. they had everything I needed for my suzuki, they specialize in japanese bike parts. |
