Little bit of oil on the lip of the seal and gently roll it on. They go on pretty easy, just like every other valve guide seal I've ever installed without a special tool. None have leaked or smoked after either. |

I use a heavy silicone assembly lube when I insert the valve in the guide. The seal slides on pretty easy, especially 7mm valves. 5/16 you rock it past the groove. I have a fancy tool for viton seals but use a vacuum cleaner attachment for H-D OEM seal/locators. I haven't messed with Loretta's heads... yet. Z |
