Wish I could get the rest of the set, but the "NEW" set doesn't have
the small black rings. It just doubles the amount of the larger brown
rings. Thanks for getting back to me on this.

Liam,

Take one of your old O-rings to an industrial hydraulic supply store and
have them match it up for size. The compound you want the O-ring made from
is 75 Durometer Nitrile. They can measure the size for you and order you the
proper O-rings. They won't be very expensive. This compound is gasoline
resistant and has an operating temperature of -65 to +250 Fahrenheit. I buy
O-rings from the local supply store for the Chevy tuned port injection units
I rebuild this way. The O-rings you buy from the dealer are nothing more
than repackaged industrial O-rings made from the proper compound.
