Re: [MBZ] rubber rings?
I doubt you can get them from a parts store but, if you know the size you can get them from a business that repairs hydraulic cylinders. As a matter of fact I was able to re-seal the fuel shut off valve on my 95 diesel for a whopping $1.13 WITH VITON rings. That only saved $120 something bucks!! William J Have a good day!!

Re: [MBZ] rubber rings?

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 address and without that it will not calculate shipping.
