OR YOU COULD JUST GET A BUNNA -N OR A VITON O-RING FROM ACE HARDWARE OR A WELDING SUPPLY STORE . VITON IS THE BEST RUBBER MATERIAL FOR THIS APPLICATION . YOU CAN TELL IF IT'S VITON RUBBER , IT WILL BE REDDISH ORANGE IN COLOR . MAKE SURE YOU GET THE RIGHT THICKNESS AS WELL AS THE RIGHT DIAMETER .... PBN

The connections on he fuel filter are threaded line connections.There isn't an "O"ring .If you have a fine stream.You have a pin hole.
