So I ordered a new impeller kit and when I opened the box it only had one o-ring in it which is green. Instructions say the green one is for diesel only! Wondering why it would matter unless they are a different size? Stopped by my local dealer yesterday and they didn't know the answer and didn't stock the correct one. I know its only a $2.00 o-ring online, but shipping is $10.00 for a $2.00 part which seems silly.

Im pretty sure it should of had one of each in the box. I hate it when shit like that happens. Not your fault, but will likely end up paying the shipping.

Yes mine had both in the box and like you said the green one is suppose to be for diesel applications. I would think it should work fine, but maybe not. It may be a slightly different size.

OK an update. Yes the kit should include the o-ring and they are going to send me one at no charge.

Good to hear they are making it right. I use them for all my parts.

I have been using them for everything as well. My local dealer doesn't stock very much. In fact I stopped there yesterday to see if they had a o-ring on hand (they didn't) and I noticed they stock a lot of Sierra parts instead of OEM VP. I prefer to use OEM parts on my boat as well as my cars.
