76 550 fuel valve gasket/o ring
« on: March 21, 2020, 03:53:33 PM »
There’s a large o ring between the valve threads and the tank threads. Where can I get it, or what size is it. ( this is the valve with two outlets) thanks

Is this the type held to the tank with 2 screw or screws onto a threaded boss?

Threaded boss. I’ll try and get some approximate measures and shop around. Current one is pretty mashed.

Its normaly only available with the strainer"kit" from Honda and is more like a rubber washer than O ring

Although you will not find it listed separately at CMS or DS, it can be ordered from Honda as the same seal is used in a variety of Honda products. The pn is: 16997-467-000. It wil cost 3-4 bucks. Dimensions are: 11.8X3.55 mm. Forget about Amazon, Walmart and all the other slave factories that are making a killing right now. These are the times to support a Honda (marine) dealer.
