WME Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Looks OK. The seal fits into a machined rim there is a bottom lip that keeps the seal from going into far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I ripped it off because there was a kink that one cannot see in the picture and my friend saw that but I guess he has a trained professional eye and I do not !!!! found another seal at autozone that looks a lot tougher if that can be of help for anybody .
