Subject: Main / Reserve Fuel Switch
Bishopgray have recently done an excellent job refurbishing the Autovac on my 2 Litre High Chassis but this has now revealed that the main/reserve fuel switch (picture attached) is leaking as the internal cork gaskets have reached the end of their life. They are 3/4 inch diameter and one is maybe 1mm thick and the other around 6mm.
I was wondering if anyone knows anyone that supplies replacement gaskets for this application ( I think that the club ones are a lager diameter) or a supplier of a suitable material (nitrile rubber ?) from which I can make some ? If anyone can confirm the exact initial thicknesses that would also be useful as its difficult to tell from whats left of mine.
