    VM26 fuel T O-rings.

    Fuel T leaking. I replaced the original T with a Z1Enterprise billet aluminum T 5 years ago. The Z1 O-rings that came with the T did fit the fitting but would not slip into the carb, so I bought some O-rings from Robert Barr that fit the Z1fitting perfectly and of course slipped into the carbs properly. Can anyone help me locate those O-rings?

    Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

    Nessism Ed Ness has picked up where Robert Barr left off. If anybody has what you need, he’s your guy.

        I can't guarantee anything involving aftermarket fuel Tee's, but with the OEM VM Tee's, those that use loose O-rings (early 750's) the O-ring size needed is Dash -011. This size is not hard to find, and yes, I have some.

        To measure is to know.

          I bought the after market fuel tees and the orings where the right overall diameter but too fat, however I didn’t actually measure them, but the orings from your, actually Robert's kits, worked perfect.

            That’s what I found.

              I let the carbs sit too long after cleaning. About 3 months. Leaked immediately on start up. Thought I’d wait and see if they swell up. Next day no more leaking at all. Ok now. Thank you though.
