Status: offline 		I originally posted this in the Glow Engine Forum but it should probably go here.

I had to remove my high-speed needle valve to fit a cowl. On removal I notice that it has a spring and a very small o-ring. It looked like the spring went on the needle first then the o-ring. I assume the spring is used to keep pressure on the o-ring. I looked at Tower's site and could not find a replacement o-ring which I'm sure will have to be replaced sometime in future. Any suggestions on where to get one? Neither part is shown on the pasrts list for teh engine.

Looks like all engines use this o-ring.

One of the contributors on the glow engine forum put me straight.

I have several ST engines and I never realized there was a spring and o-ring in the needle itself until I found it in my 2300.
