Distributor O-ring Set:
USA data, some other markets have different distibutors.
8 Valve engine. ( was told this seal fits 16v but the Distributor side is a tad tight , so lube the ring, before install)
I measured only the 8v rings, and came up with this information:
Official Suzuki PN for these rings:
These SUZ EPC numbers were accurate in 2004, but as always, call Suzuki for any substitutions or revisions.

Years Disty shaft P/N Disty base housing pn.P/N commnets
89-91 8v 33278-52010 09280-56004 added today 11-19/11
92-95 8v 33278-85060 09280-56004 corrected error
92-95 16v 33278-60B40 11162-71C00
96-98 16v 33278-85060 11162-71C10 not sure what C10 gets you here?


GM/GEO EPC stated Base Oring size is 55.5mm x 1.9mm ! 89-93' 8v. ( up to 95, im sure') [exactly what I measured on a new seal, btw]
In addition, the 16v uses RTV sealant (O2 sensor safe) to seal the housing to the head . (seals the 16v rail) NO RTV ON ANY 8V housing !
See page xxxxx in FSM
This sealant goes on the hole (cam lifter rail) next to the big O-ring. FSM shows this clearly.
8 VALVE ENGINES: Distributor O-ring measuring and buying generic o-rings that fit.
The below data is for 8V ONLY !!: and is experimental ! but did fit my 8v and on 3 friends cars.
If you want o-rings that dont fail on the Distributor shaft end and on the base to head juncture:
Good LINK How to: (down to the finest detail , wow)

I measured only the 8v rings and bosses with micrometers and calipers, and came up with this information:
These below , are my best try are measuring and matching, so you can find a local supplier of o-rings.
Small seal , P/N# -035 (SAE std numbers is the suffix code nums) Distributor bottom shaft.

Large Seal P/N# -118 , main housing to head. (this are experiemental ( the material VITON , is prime) but I measured them, RED is factory GM spec)
VT75 -035 (Distributor base in inches , slightly larger od, by .065" ) they dont stock mm 55.5 x 1.9mm o-rings.
VT75- 118 ( Distrib. shaft my best fit by measuring shaft and o-ring. ) [ (7/8 ID X 1-1/16 OD X 3/32 W]

Prefix code denotes materal types:
Use prefix V75 ( Viton high temp. rings, will never fail !!!) 400 degr. rating. Great !

Cost about .25 to ,50 cents each. ( hard to believe , huh?) Now you know, where the Fleebay scalpers, get them. Rotten huh?
Best Source , at a real on line store, just add to cart: (no min. order, wow !)
