O Ring size for Throttle Body Adjusting Screw

Post by jacktoth »

Does anyone know the size specification for the o ring on the throttle body adjusting screw ? BMW only sells the screw (ADJUSTING SCREW (M 9X0,75)) which comes with the o ring.

Do you have the old one? If not, look at the one on the other screw. I no longer have my bike to look at one, however, once the size is determined I'm sure you can find them at an auto parts store or Lowe's....if not I have an o-ring kit and can give you a couple.

Take the screw to Ace hardware and go through their bins until you find the right size that fits...Or take the one off the other side in with you and match it. Ace Hardware has every conceivable type and size of o-ring known to man or woman kind.
