    I will be replacing them with a true gas impervialbe 0-ring this time.

    I usually have to learn the hard way, unless I find the answer on here, this place has saved me from I'm sure alot of banging my head against walls.

      Thanks Larry, very generous of you!
      Right now all is good with cleaning up the old ones and flipping the one that was "flaky" over and cleaning ports and jets etc,. on carbs and running sea foam through her shutting off for about 30-40 min. refueling and driving some more, now runs better than it has for a long time, oh I also set all floats with #3 that had the best tan color, I'm sure that helped.
