Having just taken a Stat kit from my parts bin the shed I notice that the o rings on the straight and angled pipes have turned grey and are no longer black.
Now these pipes were sealed in a package but I believe are patterned parts that was part of a kit that I got, the stat is genuine as I can see the rover code but the pipes are not and in plain sealed polythene bags. I think I got the kit from DMGRS but I'd have to check that so I'm casting no aspersions.
I remember I saw a thread recently regarding o rings that were pink in colour, could this be the same issue?
I assume these should not be fitted when I get the stat changed next week.
