#90 washer for CP250

csturla · 27. September 2010

Hi, i'm reparing a pretty old Petromax CP250 (kerosene) and I tried using the same #90 washers than for CP500 (for carburator and rapid) but the holes in the tank are smaller.
Is there a specific #90 for CP250? Looking in the Pelam site they looks the same reference...

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Carlo,

normally all Petromax-pumpwashers do have (and had) the same sice.
Maybe someone changed the pumpshed once?

Otherwise you can place the washer in kerosene for some hours, and then place it in.

It will adapt the sice of the pumpshed soon.
Good luck and best regards, Björn

Thanks Björn,

you right! (of course :-))

My washer was probably not 100% well formed, I pushed it a bit more and I could enter it in the hole.

No more problems
