Sender unit gaskets

Post by MorrisJohn »

Does anyone know if there are any good durable alternatives to the standard cork fuel sender unit gasket?

I thought Moss Europe did a neoprene one, but can’t seem to see it.

I make them myself from Viton sheet. Actually that is not a bad price from Moss considering the cost of Viton.

That looks very good Declan, I like it.

I’ve ordered one from Moss Europe, with a few other fuel system related bits and bobs. No idea what viton costs but happy to take your word for it :D

Regards,

John
