I was very careful last time with this, followed the directions of the late Captn,
just used oil as lube and slipped them in place. some leak some don't, many say no sealant some have used RTV - looking for more advice so I don't have to do this again Phil |

this is what I just got in, the Viton seals. I am hoping for a better result, the motor is out so it should be a lot easier to do this time around. Looks like I will then be doing the valve settings for the first time myself too so any advice would be good.
