My butterfly shafts r worn slightly and new seals dident help,would installing oversize orings work,has anyone used o rings before.I guess as long as they dont make the throttle linkage hang up it should work in theoryThx
 
Even the special square seals from McMaster Carr didn't work well. there may be a fix for replacing the cast in place bushing, I have a "new" idea on that. The shafts are usually fine it's that bushing in the carb body that wears away.
