Fuuuucccckkkkkk
Re- strip and rebuild again
Note to self, slowly does it and do it right.
Izzat the (vaguely) pear shaped one one the left side where the oil goes up to the head? I've replaced that without pulling the barrel right off. Remove the head, jam a couple of nuts together on the stud and remove it. Lift the barrel slightly, swap the O ring, and reassemble. I did it this way because I didnt want to disturb the piston rings. Worked fine.
it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.
