Unless the teflon ring will fit inside the hole it will act as a spacer and somehow allow the o-ring to slide out.

Of course he won't listen to me. I already posted this earlier.

Take an o-ring to any trans shop & ask to match it to a Teflon ring. Check with Lynn. Davi= d.

Subject: [FlyRotary] Pesky front cover O-ring

Just pulled my front cover and low and behold that damned front cover O-ring was fricken GONE. The retaining ring was in place but no sign of the o-ring. Is it ok to pretty much glue this damn thing in some how???? Lynn suggested a metal solution bu= t that is not in my skill set. I have halamar and used it last time. Yes, I did instal the ring.
So, since I bought it I will be installing the new oil pump. Heck, the old one is over 20 years old. If any of y'all has a remedy for this damned thing slipping out you will have my complete attention.
Oh, I am sending a picture or how I am making the front cover area easier to get to :-)
