strate6 Topic Author Offline Platinum Member On An Adventure Before Dementia ! ! Posts: 1149 Thank you received: 356	Ian, Thanks for the offer mate that would be useful. Looking at it all again, I guess it is the ONLY thing it can be for as there is nowhere else it would fit. Either that or its a kit to fit other models too which may have use for it ?

strate6 Topic Author Offline Platinum Member On An Adventure Before Dementia ! ! Posts: 1149 Thank you received: 356	Ian is 100% correct ! I now have the parts at hand & can confirm the larger o ring of the 2 in the kit fits perfectly into the OVAL seat which goes between the tap & the tank (usually an oval ring). Thanks Ian.

It's usually that particular o-ring that seals the selector that goes bad. I've been able to restore old petcocks to good working condition by just replacing that one o-ring. I make sure to apply a little bit of grease on that ring when putting it back in too so the abrasion from regular use doesn't affect it quite as much.

Might help to buff out that area it contacts to smooth it out and improve it's longevity too
