Default 2005 Fuel Rail Sensor O ring size

Hi All,
I have a question ,
Has anyone replaced the o ring on a 2005 Fuel rail Pressure sensor ?
I took mine off to do a Plug change ( Never again) and it was kinda sloppy .
I think I need to put a better one on to fit snug.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks

Question: why do you think you need to change your FRPS o ring ? I've had some experience with mine (06 4x4) but just curious to why you would want to change the o ring ?

The truck is 10 years old I thought I might change the o ring if I could find one.
Update ,


The O ring is damaged,
Maybe why gas was dripping out of the sensor,
Any way The part ranges from $75-!00 so All that seems to be bad is the O ring ,
Any help would be appreciated.

Did that Harbor Freight saved the day .


Thanks! I just wonder why I got so few replies ,
Every time I have pulled a part that has an O ring or a gasket I generally change them as they do go bad from the Fuel or the heat.
Any way Thanks the Truck is back on the road.

Just a bump on this thread - as I have done a similar thing and cannot find the o-ring at all now. any thoughts on the depth of the o-ring that should be used. I have tried a few and still getting leaks - My sensor is fine though and as in the OP I removed it just to get it out of the way while replacing the COPs..

Driving me nuts since everything else is perfect now except the one part i needed not to replace now leaking on me.

Default Fuel Rail Sensor O ring

Hi ,
I went to Harbor Freight and bought a set of Nitrile O rings and found one that fit from the box.
It was a P11 or 10.8X2.4 mm and It does leak after a year now.
Cost was about $4.
Hope that helps ,
Jim
