Where to get that l'il plastic ring??? Or is there a "roadside fix" that works? If you "Ain't Skeered" or have "No Fear", it's 'cause you ain't goin' FAST enough!!

The power unit uses a plastic ring that is about 1/4 the thickness of the manual unit rubber piece. Pic is of the remnants of the plastic ring next to a single edge razor blade. Or have you used the rubber piece on a power unit?? 4449320-Mvc-753f.jpg (213 downloads) If you "Ain't Skeered" or have "No Fear", it's 'cause you ain't goin' FAST enough!!

I sliced a piece 1/4" fuel line thin and used that, all the while, my trusty l'il assortment box of o-rings sat discreetly on the shelf laughing their buns off!!!! So sharp I am!!!! No fun replacing a power brake booster on a 4 speed car. If you "Ain't Skeered" or have "No Fear", it's 'cause you ain't goin' FAST enough!!
