  If possible, get a Viton o-ring. It will cost a few pennies more, but
should not swell or dissolve in the presence of biodiesel or additives.
 Metric o-rings are described using OD, ID, and cross section. If you can
get measurements off of the old o-ring, you could bring them to an
industrial supply place or wherever. Standard ones use a dash system of
numbering. Since this should be metric, I won't go into that.  :-))
