Cylinder O-Ring Question

Post by SquadraCorse »

Are the o-rings for the bores (#2 below) necessary for preventing water from slipping by the cylinders and into the crankcase? These don't seem to fit nicely in their intended recess and there is nothing to keep them from falling down over the con rods.

I had to heat mine with a hairdryer a little to get them to fit. Then I used two non sharp screwdrivers to get mine in there. It was a pain.
