Good idea to have a new o-ring available for the petcock bowl. It might leak after you have had it apart after cleaning the mesh filter inside.

 It always surprised me how flat that o ring gets. The ones in my kit are always too fat to allow the threads to start. I bought a few genuine Honda ones to have on hand. The one on top of the petcock also may not reseal and the screw washers will sometimes be an issue. A small cost but a big issue if you don't have them and need them.
