This is the one I use on water and diesel. It's a 222 in Silicone. Buna black rubber wasn't lasting long, the UV killed. Silicone holds up much better. Water is the quickest way to get algea in the diesel tank. Only $0.63 ea.

These seem like they would be too small at only 1.5 inch ID. I am heading down to the boat tomorrow morning and will measure my ID and OD then.

Bought these from The O Ring Store online. I can't remember which was diesel and which was water.


10 x 3.5mm X 46mm Buna-N 70 Metric O-ring (N3.50X046) $10.60
10 x 3.5mm X 48mm Buna-N 70 Metric O-ring (N3.50X048) $11.00


I measured the all of the O-Ring's on the deck fills today.

Diesel: 46mm ID and 54 OD 3.5mm thickness
Water x2: 48mm ID and 55OD 3.15mm thickness (measured 1/8 inch)
Waste: 46.7mm ID and 54OD 3.5mm thickeness

I ordered the following from Global O-Ring and Seal - Total cost was 12.61 shipped for 13 of each (minimum order was $5)
N3.50X048
N3.50X046

Will let everyone know whether these fit after they show up.

The O-Ring's fit well and came quickly. I would order from Global O-Ring and Seal again. I used the 46mm on the Diesel and Waste deck fills (N3.50X046) and the 48mm on the 2 water deck fills (N3.50X048). Since I bought 13 of each, I have enough for 6.5 changes of each. Will be good to keep on the boat.
