Here are some additional tips that will help you have a successful O-ring installation.
One common reason leaking occurs in engines is that debris is caught in the fork seal, holding it open and allowing oil to sneak by. So, how do you fix this? This is where the little circular devices come in—oil seals.
Oil seals are widely used as sealing devices for machines.
JTEKT's oil seals are described in our catalog, Oil Seals & O-Rings.
However, the catalog uses a large number of technical terms and is very long, so many people seem to have trouble handling it.
Therefore, this series of columns will summarize the following in order:
• The structure, functions, and types of oil seals
• How to select the right oil seal
• Handling of seals, and causes and countermeasures for oil seal failure

Auto Head Gasket: Importance in Engine Functionality
Set the gasket on the block and make sure that all holes are perfectly aligned before refitting the head (See How to remove a cylinder head ).
After the oil seal is positioned in the groove, apply even pressure to the oil seal using a seal driver or a similar tool. This will help to seat the oil seal firmly in the groove and prevent it from moving during use. Make sure to apply the pressure evenly and gently, as applying too much force can damage the oil seal or cause it to deform.
Refit the rocker or cam cover, aligning its fixing holes with those on the head. Check that the gasket edge aligns with the cover flange all round, and is not distorted. If necessary, adjust it gently with tweezers or long-nosed pliers. Tighten bolts evenly to just compress the gasket.
