Camshaft Position Sensor O-Ring
Hello chaps,
I've got some oil leaking from my camshaft position sensor and I can't find the O-rings available on their own anywhere. I've messaged Rimmers and Xpart but they're not available separately. I want to avoid buying a whole new sensor if possible as there's nothing wrong with the one I've got. Does anyone know what sort of material the O-rings should be made of so that I can at least look for some generic ones? I'm guessing that normal rubber ones won't be appropriate. |

Just for people who might want the dimensions of the original O-ring, it's a 3mm cross-section with an internal diameter of 17.5mm.
I did buy an assorted pack of NBR O rings and I've got one to fit for now but it's a bit narrow so I've ordered another one to fit at some point soon. Edit: Assuming mine's not been changed before now by a previous owner! Last edited by JefferiesFarnol; 29th May 2022 at 12:21.. |
