Simon,
Not sure where you are located but there must be a place in your area that =
sells "O" rings. Go there and ask for "O" rings that can be subjected to co=
nstant exposure to brake fluid, bring an old one with you so they can have =
the right size for you. You should not use the "O" rings that you can get a=
t places like Home Depot etc. they will not be suitable for your applicatio=
n. There is a place where I live that has all types of "O" rings, you just =
need to mention the application, like oil, or fuel etc and they should be a=
ble to help you.
Jean

A few enquiries of the right people should see you right....

Hi,
I am looking for a source for the 4 small O-rings that go on the air valve =
