We get them over here anyhow....a plastic box about 5” by 3” with little compartments filled with different sized rings. Costs nothing and the contents will keep you going forever. And there will be a ring in there that fits. And they are probably on eBay. BUT, BUT, will an ordinary O-ring survive in brake fluid? I don’t know, but I do know that I put in a Girling rebuild kit once which worked fine for a while and then gave up. There was no warning, no gradual process. I nearly hit a wall. One of the little nylony/rubbery things had turned itself into something with the same consistency and usefulness as a ten year old tea bag. It didn’t like brake fluid and it dissolved.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>A few enquiries of the right people should see you right....<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Simon<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> Healeys [mailto:healeys-bounces@autox.team.net] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Tom<br><b>Sent:</b> 01 November 2016 12:48<br><b>To:</b> Healey Mail List<br><b>Subject:</b> [Healeys] brake servo parts<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>I am looking for a source for the 4 small O-rings that go on the air valve piston on the Lockheed brake booster for my BJ8. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Just to make sure I described the part correctly, the air valve piston is #5 at <a href="http://www.v8register.net/FilesV8WN/Brake%20servo%20working%20note%20190109.pdf">http://www.v8register.net/FilesV8WN/Brake%20servo%20working%20note%20190109.pdf</a>, or the "reaction piston" at <a href="http://www.triumph-spitfire.nl/servoimages.htm">http://www.triumph-spitfire.nl/servoimages.htm</a>.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>I took the whole thing apart last winter, and everything looks like it's in good shape, so I don't need to replace the whole booster or get a re-build kit from Moss, just looking for 4 O-rings.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>thanks,<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Tom<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></body></html>
