I am in a bind for a used VTC sprocket to use as parts. While rebuilding mine, I sheared the o-ring inside the assembly. It is not available new - except to buy the entire sprocket. Is there anyone here who may have an old one to sell me for parts? PM me if you have any leads at all, I will respond.

Thanks,
Barry

 

i thought the rebiuld kits came with a new o ring

 

It is actually the o-ring inside the assembly toward the bottom. The profile is square, not round. I am not sure what it does, but as particular as these things are about not working properly, I'm not about to substitute a round one in it's place.

 

i think i know which one your talking about is it about 2in in diameter?

did you buy a rebiuld kit i thought i remember reading in the rebiuld TSB that it came with a new one

 

Yes, I did buy the rebuild kit, but the o-ring I am referring to is not the one in the kit. It is actually a square profile hard rubber- like ring with overlapping ends, not endless. Hard to describe, but it is way down in the bottom of the assembly. My problem is that I believe I went too far with the dis-assembly procedure, trying to make certain there was no crud trapped in there.

Anyhow, long story short MrGone has hooked me up with a used one that I can hopefully steal this part from. Thanks to him and his generousity, this just may work.
