Replacing O rings

What’s the general consensus on replacing these?

I know it’s probably best to but I’ve just removed my condenser and found two green ones. They look in good shape and I’ve now ordered new ones but it will be a week before they arrive.

Could the old ones just stay on?

I would only replace with new if fitting a new part. Or if the ‘o’ ring looked degraded such as cracking or any form of damage or ageing.
You can usually tell when they aren’t in good shape, sometimes merely removing them can finish them off.

It’s best to always have spares I case though anyway is what I tend to do. ⭐️⭐️God Bless the USA 🇬🇧🇺🇸 ⭐️⭐️

That’s good advice!

At least I’ll have couple of spares now.
