      35HP ’57 Javelin……having the darnedest time confirming the part number for the needle valve cork packing washers.

      I believe it’s OMC# 307583; Sierra# 18-7106-9

      Can anyone confirm or correct me?

      Thanks!

        I’d say both of those numbers are good numbers for the fiber sealing washers.

          Thanks!

          Any idea about the pt# for the plastic washers that the cork washers get sandwiched between?

            Either one will appear to be a different material then the original because they are. The originals contained asbestos.

              This should work . . .

                Plastic washers were not used in ’57, but are a later improvement, so wise to use them anyway. Part number 306027

                  I just want them to fit.

                    I would use the BRP ones. I’ve tried the Sierra version, and their junk, unless they’ve changed them recently. The down side is they aren’t cheap.
