The o-rings for the gas disconnects have to be made of a material
impervious to gasoline.  I would guess that most hardware store o-rings are
not.

Try talking to a motorcycle mechanic.  They often have a box full of extra
o-rings from other jobs, something in the box should match.  I've done this
before and it's saved my butt.
