Recently I realized McMaster Carr had X-Rings that are Viton and would fit our pushrod tubes. I ordered some test sets and they look GREAT! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)
I haven't used these on a car yet. If anyone else wants to try some, here's the part numbers. Viton Pushrod Tube Seals (small, X shape) 6540K152 Viton Pushrod Tube Seals (large, X shape) 6540K154 Attached image(s) |

Mark,
Im not sure X orings are a good idea. They may leak more then the regular ones because they create pressure between the 2 lips. Those kind of seals are built for dust. Let us know how they stand-up. |
