Does anyone have a source for the round gasket at the base of the fuel filter? (The one that seals the base from the main cylinder?) It is about 1.25" in diameter with about a 3/4" hole in the middle....maybe 2-3mm thick.

I don't see any in a fuel resistant material through local aviation sources.

Thanks.

I ordered a batch of these gasket in fuel resistant rubber. I checked two samples of that rubber for 3 months submerged in mogas and avgas and found no problems. They will be available for the end of February. The exact measure is 38.5 mm outside, 25 mm inside 2.5 mm thick.
I will send some to Collin for the US owners.

Hi again Eugenio,

Please would you bring two filter gaskets and two magneto drives to Gap Tallard, and I will pay you in cash there, if that is convenient.

Thank you.

Yours, Bob
