How exactly does that O-Ring not fit the current 0000 120 5110 black m-tronic solenoid valve? I have both valves (the old one for the MS 280i and the current m-tronic black one here.) They have the same dimentions including the O-Ring. Please elaborate on it.
I ordered the part based upon your part number (9645 945 3001 O-ring 7x0.8). It was special order of course and took a while to show up. I took it home and went to install it. It was easily 3 times as thick as the damaged O ring. It would not fit in the housing. It's possible my dealer just gave me the wrong part, there's a inbred feeling to the place.
At the time I just assumed that it didn't fit and ordered a full solenoid. It also did not run well, and I ultimately sealed it in place with 1184. It ran perfectly for about 6 months after that but recently the saw has begun to flood.
Before I get flamed for the 1184, I was extremely careful and applied it with a needle after the lower half of the solenoid was already installed. No liquid gasket got on the lower valve parts of the solenoid. It worked well. The saw now has other performance issues.
