Where can I get an "O" ring that is 100mm dia. X .5-1mm thick

I need it for the distributor cover (inside dizzy cap) of my GQ.

Can I use a sealant (silicon) instead?

Nissan wants $48 for it!

Cheers,

Rod

The size of O-rings is designated as the inside diameter x the thickness.

Q-Fit are the people for O rings.

Theyve got every conceivable O ring you can think of.

Cost me $2.60 for two 100mm x 2mm O rings.

And to think Nissan wanted $48 for the same two rings! :finger:
