I purchased a new nipple and o-ring part # 335234 for my 1991 Fastrike the nipple is now white and the groove for the o-ring is at the top of the nipple unlike the older one which had no groove but we cannot get it to go in we put oil on the o-ring and try to push it up into where it goes but it won't go do you think it's possible that I got a wrong nipple even if the # are correct.I ended up putting just the new o-ring on the old nipple for now???
1990 374V Ranger Still kickin' bass after all these years
The O ring sits inside the VRO housing and doesn't go over the nipple. It is more of a seal and you tighten the T-10 torx screws to seat the nipple.
this is the nipple that goes into the vapor box on the fuel bracket according to the diagram on the Johnson page don't know how to post a linc otherwise I would to show you what I mean??? it has a regular screw with a retainer plate little aluminum thing that holds it up http://shop2.evinrude.com/Inde...eid=1 part #9,31,34 if the linc works ok
Just make sure the raised edge is pointing down. The O ring should be inside the VST.
the o-ring is inside the the vst but the new nipple has a groove around the upper end that goes into the vst but would not fit with the oring on it so we used the old nipple and new o-ring should that be ok the old one would squirt gas when you pushed on it under pressure
They all do that. The groove should point down.
