Are these nos? Or aftermarket no name?
I don't know what you mean by aftermarket no name. I purchased them from a military supplier rerfered to me by a fellow member here. They are current manufacture, not old and cracked if thats what you mean. These are milspec parts.

Howdy,
Any tube or drain will use a well nut to seal the opening. Any time you have a fuel leak, it will be the well nut.

Not all well nuts are the same. You want this one made with Buna N nitrile rubber because of the contact with diesel.

You still have 2? I don't need one... yet. But it might be cheap insurance to put on the shelf.

Thanks Mike.

Anyone have a problem ordering from green mountain generator? I've left 3 messages regarding ordering replacement parts. No one has returned my calls. Frustrated.

That company has an interesting business model.

Wonder what growth strategy they have behind that.
