Post by: smoothoperator on December 03, 2021, 06:25:17 PM

Does anyone know the size of the O ring fitted to the neutral switch on the 400F?

Can't help with dimensions, but if you're stuck, David Silver has some in his USA warehouse.
  Part No. 35751 333 003
  I've ordered a few parts from him for a USA spec. CL160 I'm playing with, and delivery was a lot quicker than what I'd expected, between 1 & 2 weeks, and no extra costs.

Thanks for that Tricky. At £3.97 I thought I might be able to save a few bob if I could find an alternative. Not a lot in the great scheme of things. I'm at the part of the build where lots of these little odds and sods crop up and I think I get meaner/wiser with the pennies.

Ive a spare switch in the shed and due out there this arvo, do you need a measurement once I get out there?

Thanks Roo but I have measured mine at 11.5 mm in the ring groove and 13.7 mm outer diameter. So it would be a fair question as to why I asking for the dimensions! Well the short answer is that whilst I know the switch dimensions, I'm not an engineer so I don't assume that I need let's say an 11 mm x 1.5 mm O ring, (pack of loads for £8 on ebay). I think I'll stop here, just found a pack of 11.5 x 1.5  viton rings for £1.40 free post on ebay! - can even order a single one!
