Hi Brian - Does look a bit flat to me - worth replacing I would have thought, having gone the effort you have to replace the other items... Dave |

Hi Dave thats what I was thinking. On checking the PET diagram its described as a sealing ring rather than an o ring might order one up anyway as I want to replace the washers for the OPRV and oil pressure sender Cheers Brian |

The new O ring seal will be green not black in case you think you have the wrong one. |

thanks for the replies am I right in thinking there is just one seal to replace the flat black one at the narrow end of the valve, the PET diagram seems to show two ? cheers Brian |

I didnt risk it with mine as bound to lose the clip. Test the valve by pushing the end in with flat punch or similar, it will squirt any remaining oil out the side holes, then check it is moving freely in and out on the internal spring and not catching. |
