New seals are generally not the problem - the torque people apply to the bolts to 'seal' the washers is - take it EASY!!

I used to have a Suzuki GT380 back in the 70's and the oil piump used nylon washers for the banjo bolts will these work on my KH500? Suzi part part number 09168-06004 6.2X11X1.2 any ideas on this or has it been tried? |

I think most guys like the Statoseals but some use the brass washers too. If the ID is correct and they fit, I dont see why they wont work. Just need to make sure oil holes all line up correctly. And that there are no air leaks. |

Stat-o-seals have proven to be a trouble free replacement for OEM and are available thru several sources. $1.18/ea https://www.mscdirect.com/product/65075491 With the thickness you have provided it would probably mean new, longer banjo bolts would be required. If the Suzi part is cost effective, reusable, and doesn't leak... be a guinea pig and let use know. |
