The green o rings cost me $12 from a bosch dealer.

Don't forget to give your O-Rings some lubrication, some sort of Vaseline, or even dip them in a little diesel fuel. It doesn't need to be coated with the Vaseline, just enough that they don't look dry.

they shouldn't be holding fuel, the point of them is purely to keep **** out.
