Christen inverted oil system 802 Oil (Ball) Valve overhaul kit?

Hi folks!

The lower „head plug“ (the plate held in place by an snap ring/circlip/retainer) is leaking some oil….
Not as much to be really worried about, but enough to make the belly look awful after 2 hrs of flight.
I want to overhaul the valve and replave the o-ring, plate and retainer.

I cannot find an „overhaul kit“ for the valve or individual part numbers.

Can anyone help me out, please?

Thanks in advanve.
 
There is no kit per se. All you need are a couple of o-rings, MS28775-027 for the ball valve. As an aside, the 804-A swivel fitting requires two MS28775-018 and the 805 plug requires one MS28775-111.IMG_3667.jpegIMG_3668.jpeg

(Why didn‘t i see this drawing in my documentation??………i‘ll check again.)

You’re welcome. The documentation doesn’t actually have everything you need. They list Christen part numbers for the o-rings. They conveniently omitted the MS part numbers which are handwritten. I don’t remember where I originally tracked those down.
