Default Does anybody recognize this retract valve?


It came on a Jet I bought. The seller doesn't remember the brand name.

The valve leaks on the down gear cycle. The plunger has 3 Rubber O-Rings on it (not pictured b/c it is not extended). Ineed to replace the O-Rings and have had a tough time finding an exact match for them at Ace Hardware, etc...so Iam trying to find the maker so Ican just use their purpose made O-Rings.

Anybody recognize the valve? There is no insignia on it...
Thanks,
Shaz

With those adjusting screws, looks to me as a Yellow Aircraft valve
