I never went anywhere. I've been here all along, unless you're talking to someone else.

Yea. 89Laredo has been missing for a year. On a real computer you can see he has "grumpy bastard" there on his thing. Sorry for the confusion!

Okay, here's the skinny on the o-rings. Mopar are Buna N Nitrile which is the most common material for o-rings. The AS568 series numbers are 017, 212, and 230. The 3 sizes are;
017--.070 X .676 X .816
212--.139 X .859 X 1.137
230--.139 X 2.484 X 2.762
IDK what other suppliers o-rings are made from, but I've been lead to believe most o-rings made for petroleum are Buna N Nitrile at least. The reason I questioned this is Rockauto lists them as rubber. Nobody uses natural rubber for o-rings anymore. They probably never did!
BTW, the temperature tolerance range of Buna N is +250*F to -30*F
017--.070 X .676 X .816
212--.139 X .859 X 1.137
230--.139 X 2.484 X 2.762
