O-Rings for gas "t"'s between carbs

I wanted to know if anyone knew the size of the o-rings that go on the "t's" that go inbetween the carbs on a cb750? I thought that I had read on the HondaChopper page years ago that you could use some that are available at Home Depot/Lowe's etc. and that they were green (natural gas rated?)

Geeto67,

I forgot. Try not to beat me up too much.

I have a '78 bike, but I kept a set of carbs for my '75 and those are the one's I am going to rebuild. I have already bought the intake isolators for that model ($100 OUCH!). I think that i'm going to have to do something with the throttle cables, but i figured that was all easier than trying to rebuild the original carbs. The guy I got the bike from parked it in 1982 and didn't drain the bowls and the sliders were STUCK! I kept them just in case the swap turns tits up. That way I'll have something to fall back on.

i was just kidding about beating me up. i've been on some forums where if you didn't do a good search before hand, or forgot ALL the pertenant (sp) info some folks really got on ya.

I don't know if the leak. they've been sitting around for 5yrs and since i was going to take them all the way apart for cleaning, i thought it would be best just to replace them. even at $1 a peice it would only be $8 to have new ones. I look at it like it's a small price to pay to keep from having to take them back off.
