There is 2 O rings in there it is usually the first one that goes, it is the same size as the drain plug oring, there is a guy on forun here that designed the system and told of the numbers and a cut away . as far as replacing the o'ring it took me 5 minutes with a pick and a snall finger

Just wanted to share a simple solution to anyone else who may have issues with a leaky quick disconnect on the fuel tank. Recently, after re-installing my tank after paint, the quick disconnect started to leak...leak pretty profusely actually. Anyway, the Harley dealership tried to sell me an entire new quick disconnect. I insisted that there had to be an o-ring inside the disconnect, but the parts guy swore that there was not. After refusing to spend $58 on a new disconnect, I drained the fuel from the tank, removed the disconnect, and removed the cracked o-ring (the one that the parts guy said did not exist). A quick trip to the local parts store and I found the o-ring for under $1.
THANKS

ferrisorange - The answer has been posted several times in this thread already, but here it is one more time. You need a #41 o-ring. You can get a package of 10 from Home Depot for $1.97.
