Ed,
The following are my findings on the oil control orings:
1.  Outer oil control Oring:
    ASA568A-158 - This is a good fit
    McMaster-Carr Part number = 9464K116

2.  Inner oil control ring:
    ASA568A-244 - This is a tight fit but might be OK.
    ASA568A-245 - This oring is too thick (1/8") and will not
    fit
    ASA568A-156 - This oring is too thin and does not 'fill' the
    groove in the scraper ring.

3.  Inner Coolant Oring:
    ASA568A-175 - this is a perfect fit
    McMaster-Carr Part number = 9319K239

4.  Outer Coolant Oring:  I did not find a replacement for this

Ed, could I ship you a sample of the 3 Inner oil control Orings
and let you guys decide at Sun-N-Fun if any of these will work?
I think that the -244 is the only real possibility, but it might
be too tight a fit.

Thanks,
Ken Powell

Sure thing, Ken.

    I will bring an inner oil "O" ring retainer and we will see what it
looks like.
