A standard 2-021 o-ring seems to fit, but the cross-section is .070" and doesn't provide enough compression to seal properly. I ended up purchasing a pack of 50 Buna-N o-rings in the correct metric size (M2 x 23.5, .079" cross-section) to fit the 45D distributor.
If anyone needs an o-ring and would like to make a small donation, pm me. I have a few to spare.
Reviving an old post. Does anyone have a part number or listing for the proper O ring? I cant seem to find it with the info already posted.
Thankyou
