O Rings & Vacuum leaks

["dherv10" <dherv10@xxxx>]

Group, We talk about engines not running right, rough idle and so on, 
the O Rings play a very dull and important roll. Often out of sight 
and neglected. I put together a kit some of the more popular O rings 
and vacuum gaskets in a kit on the web site. It will be supplied as 
shown. One of the most common over looked is the idle speed tube 
going into the bottom of the air flow meter. The seal isn't very 
tight, but that little O ring and keeper must fit snuggly. Most often 
it's hard or someone has put silicone all over the tube and hole to 
get a good fit. Maby the kit will help in finding or preventing a 
problem. If there is anything I left out that someone feels should be 
there, please let me know. It's on the front page and the hardware 
page. Some of the O ring pictures will be on the Reference page of 
Talk & View.
