O rings - Olives - Sleeves

I am having trouble finding a source of the O rings that seal fuel lines on the Perkins diesel on my MF 135.

These are tubular rings which I have heard called 'Olives' and the AGCO parts book calls them 'Sleeves'. What is the correct name?

We have rings .15 x .35 x .2 which fit over the pipe properly but are just slightly too big to fit in the brass fitting.

The AGCO parts book shows them as .18 x .31 x .18 which would would have an even larger outside diameter.

Can anyone link me to a source of information and supply of these.
 
O. K. I never heard the term "olives untill we started with the Perkins engines. I used to stock them under the Cockshutt part number for use on the Perkins in the 1850 Olivers. Sleeves were what they known as on the American diesel fuel systems and when I worked for Dana and Dana owned Weatherhead they were known as sleeves. The American Diesel lines have a larger diameter than the fuel lines on the Perkins engines. I think they are Metric. I can measure one Monday as I have a Perkins apart at work. A good diesel fuel shop can get them for you.
 
Oh Harry. I hope this isn't what you are talking about. Silver solder, special jigs and presses... oh man. Look for another tube.
Now, everyone here knows I am a butcher. I loosened one on the 23c, diesel tech sent me the right one. Even tho it ran with one off a Japanese Ford engine, it ran just as bad as with the 'proper' one dieseltech sent.
Then lately, I messed up another one... not wanting to wear out dieseltech's welcome... I put the funky Ford one back on. I think you need to find another line off of 'something' and see how it runs. Apparently, the length of the line compare to all the other variables, timing, pressure, pressure of fuel bypass, you might just get it going good enough to trade in for a good gasoline powered to35...

mf dealer or diesel pump repair shop, seemed like every time i removed one it would damage, there i'd be with nothing use in it's place finally remembered them one day while i was at the dealer bought a dozen an haven't ran out yet
 
Hey Harry! I found a picture of me trying to salvage one. It didn't come out too good, when I was done.... it leaked worse.
I have no idea why....

I slid some neoprene fuel line with the correct ID onto a bolt, snugged it up with a nut, chucked the bolt in a drill and ground the outside down until it fit.

15 - 20 years later, they're still holding.
