You also may try A.C. Moores if you have them in your area. I live in the Southeast and that is the biggest craft store around here. I have done your project before, but it was a AC Big-10 lawn tractor. Make sure that when you cut your cork that it is just like the other cork. When I was replacing the old one, I trimmed mine too short on top and it was still wrong. Had to buy more cork and try again. I used a cork top like found on a jar for a lid. Worked great once I had trimmed it right.

For my boat tanks I just disasemble the unit and replace the cork. Check a bait shop for oversized cork.
