I have a 1911 that I am re-sealing before I put it into my car. I bought the sealing kit from PP. I pulled and cleaned the push rod tubes. I have 3 sets of rubber o-rings in the sealing kit from PP. I assumed that I would use the orange and green rings for the push rod tubes, but the orange rings (smaller side) are kinda loose on the tube. The black o-rings fit better than the orange ones, and fit more like the green ones, but I don't think those are for the push rods. Pics below.
The question is, even if they are a little loose, should I still use the orange ones? What are the black rings for? Attached image(s)
