IP Fuel Inlet Nut O-ring?

[MOWOG]

... so I'm transfering stuff from my old IP to my new one and when I removed the nut (the one that the fuel line from the fuel filter connects to) and behind it there's a small o-ring. I wasn't expecting this. It looks to be the same size as the ones in the return line kit. Would one of those work?

I don't think they are large (long, wide) enough I used some 1/4 inch (I think) fuel line cut to about 1/4 wide. You can buy the O-ring, (we call them olives) from Graingers (I think)

Hmmmm, ok, maybe I'll just install the nut with the old o-ring (olive).

You could try it but I think they are one time use as they get crushed to seal, watch it for leaks, but if it only leaks air you could be in for the dreaded start, stall, hard start sign of air intrusion

put it on with the old one and I can mail you a couple new ones.

Thanks for the offer Russ... I bought one at the local stealership.
