Hi Wingover 1, I recently had one fail, so was forced to empty the tank and replace, but unfortunately I do not have the dimensions, I got someone to make me up a couple - they are not a standard size.

Good Day,

The O ring on my fuel drain also has to be replaced.

If possible, could you please give me the dimensions of the o ring.

Kind regards,
