I bought a new o-ring for the gas tank valve I thought it looked small, well it is. The one I got seems to go around the filter but on the chart, they only show one. It seems to me there was a bigger o-ring when I took it apart last year, cant remember  uglystupid2 In the chart they only show one #6. Is there a bigger one that goes there and where is it on the chart or what number or size is it?

The threads on the valve hold it onto the tank, but the #6
O-ring is what keeps the gas from leaking out. It jambs down
over the stand-pipe and then the filter and then you screw
the valve back onto the tank... that's it I think...

There is only one required in there Flash,  just don't remember off hand which side of the filter lip it goes on.

That's weird because, when you look on the tank outlet side it as a grove as if there should be a o-ring in that place. I will try it the way it is with the small ring and see if it leaks or not.  Thanks guys
