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 |

I tried all of the suggestions above with varying poor results. Finally an old pro suggested try a new set of push rod tubes new tubes along with the new brown "O" rings. No more oil leaks!
