Fuel Gauge Sender O Ring Dimensions ??
Can anyone please confirm the dimensions of the O-Ring (K Part no 920551067).
Its the O-Ring that fits in the recess of the tank for the fuel gauge sender
Its a commonly used part on most Z1000 / Z1100 Models from 81 onwards.
Thanks for help.

Are you sure it is the Fuel Gauge Sender and not the Petcock?

There's two types used between 80 & 83. One is oval the other is circular.
I just cut whatever I need from an old inner tube avoiding the ribs. Bit of rtv both sides job done.

The Fuel Sender Unit has a Round O Ring to seal it.
The Fuel Tap (petcock) is completely differnt.

What bike are talking about? UK J's and R's both use rubber gasket not an o ring to seal the sender unit / tank joint.
Zpower stock the part number you originally posted.

Re: Fuel Gauge Sender O Ring Dimensions ??
Thanks Warren................but they want £10.50 + £5.00 postage which is a bit rich for an o-ring.
Got measurements now (40x3mm) and got a Nitrile one on Ebay for £1.90 delivered !

Maybe a tad OTT but use em or loose em. Tough times for small businesses.

Re: Fuel Gauge Sender O Ring Dimensions ??
Very true...............
Thats why I have spent over £300 with them in the last 4 months, but £16.00 for an oring that is available for £1.90 is just a bridge too far !!
