The left camshaft seal installed very quickly with o'ring, gasket and Liquid Gasket 1104. The right camshaft seal is a different story. There seems to be less surface area for the OEM seal to ride on! Read some reviews and decided to try the suggestion of leaving the gasket off and use only Yamabond. Well, not only did I leave the gasket off but forgot to put the o'ring on as well. Neither side leaks and all appear well. I hesitate to put in the forgotten o'ring on the right side. Any comments would be appreciated.
