Fuel Hose Fitting O-rings
For the 1994-1997 7.3L Diesel
A set of 16 Viton O-rings to re-seal the quick disconnect fuel fittings.
8 for 5/16" line fittings
8 for 3/8" line fittings
Genuine USA made Viton O-rings for superior resistance to ULSD and Biodiesel.
WARNING: These Viton O-rings are precision seals—handle carefully to avoid leaks or repeats!
Common damage causes:
- Twisting or nicking during insertion: Use a non-sharp tool (plastic pick, wooden dowel, or Q-tip) to seat them—never metal screwdrivers that can cut the edge.
- Dry installation: Always lubricate generously with clean diesel/gas fuel, silicone grease, or assembly lube (NOT petroleum jelly if concerned about swelling—fuel is best). Dry rings can tear, bunch, or roll out of the groove.
- Overstretching: Don't stretch them excessively to fit; roll them gently into place. If it feels too tight, double-check groove cleanliness (old debris/spacer issues common).
- Wrong order/position: Some fittings have a white nylon spacer between two O-rings—install rear O-ring first, then spacer, then front O-ring. Push firmly but straight to seat fully (use a dowel to press evenly).
- Reassembly force: When reconnecting lines, push straight and evenly—twisting or angled force can pinch/roll the O-rings. Fully seat until the clip snaps securely.
- Inspection tip: After install, cycle the key (prime pump) and check for leaks before driving. If it weeps, disassemble and re-lube/re-seat.
Order of 1 = 1 package of 16 o-rings.
