Have you put oil on the o-ring?

If it is lubed, just make sure you are pushing it straight and shove it in there, get the threads in and secure that shit.

Sounds like you've got the wrong o-ring. I don't remember it being very hard. Just pressed it down with one hand while screwing in the bolts with the other.

yeah i guess it was on the o ring just has a rip in it. hopefully the parts store will have one.

its the same size as an injector Oring

If the O-ring is ripped or messed up in any way, replace it. It WILL piss fuel everywhere. Learned that one the hard way...

yeah, thats why i thought it wasnt on, it was dumping a shit load of fuel

lube it with some oil before putting it in, makes it way easier
