Of course they are a better source for the exact part. But that does not answer the question asked. Never know what you might find. I buy my secondary fuel filters @ Advance...they are made in Germany. Just a rubber donut, if they have one the same size on the shelf why bother with mail

Stopped on my way back from lunch to get a tube of The Right Stuff and asked about the rubber rings. They have different sizes available so I need to take one off and take it along if I want to find out if there is something more generic available. Randy On 18/06/2013 12:15 PM, Michael

The ones' that one of you folks kindly pointed out on Jabba's site are more oval than round. Don't know if the exhaust doughnuts come oval as the only ones I recall were round. Tried to just order a set from him but his site won't let me as I am in Canada. It won't let me put in my billing
