I'm missing two rubber pieces and could use some help sourcing them. The dealer couldn't locate them for me.
The first is a grommet where the accelerator cable passes through the rear engine sheet metal. It measures approx. 23mm.
The second is probably a plug, (its missing!) and located in right hand top of the motor shroud. It measures approx. 20mm.
I think this missing plug is the main source of my nagging oil vapor issue.
I also replaced the oil pressure sending unit o-ring about 5-6 years ago with a black one, but now want to go with the green Viton o-ring since the motors out. It measures 39.2 x 3mm.
I can't find one on the Pelican website that says "Viton".
Can anyone help me with a source for this o-ring, or do you have an extra one?
Many thanks in advance.

I think the accelerator grommet is only available with the cable. I'll take a look and see if I still have my old one. The hole in the shroud has been discussed here before, I'm pretty sure it's missing on everyone's car and there's no part number listed. As far as the o-ring, I ordered one from the dealer about two years ago and it was green, part # 999 707 314 40

My throttle cable grommet had gone missing too. I can confirm its only available via purchasing a new cable. Instead of doing that, I bought an assortment of grommets and installed one that was close in size.

Thanks for the info gentlemen. That is very helpful.
I was able to make a paper tracing of the fan shroud hole using the oil residue. That hole actually measures 23mm, the same as the missing throttle cable grommet.
Looks like I could get a few 23mm plugs and solve both issues.
I will just punch a hole in one for the throttle cable.
