PW22 O-Ring Size
Does anyone have the measurements for the PW22 carb o-ring, part # 16175-260-004, and / or a source for said o-ring?
Paying around $5 plus the same in shipping for one teeny o-ring is ridiculous....I know it says "2.8mm", but is that Outside, or Inside diameters?

That raises an interesting question: it's a PW22 carb, and the air screw is the one with the rounded-off tip, with a spring in the hole.
The diagram that I have shows a little o-ring for it, but yes, I agree that some use one and some don't. No pic yet, but that does give me a pause for thought...Does this carb need that o-ring…?

Huh - and here I was just following the (apparent) diagram placement - - another case of the diagram not being all too clear about what goes where! On page 40/Part #19, it looks like the rounded off one goes Farthest from the engine! I was wondering about that...
Even in this case, then, it still shows the Idle Speed Screw getting that o-ring...I'll go out and do some prestidigitation and report back; see if the "2.8" mm (OD) o-ring I have fits...but they appear to be the same size hole, so we'll see.
