[QUOTE="UARPREY, post: 15959550, member: 148280"] Okay so with the help of MMR, I was able to get the -136 installed. It took a million times more finagling and screwing around with than I had previous attempted, as to not actually stretch and ruin the O-ring, because I had always been told not to force or stretch o rings to make them fit, or you can damage them etc etc..The hardest part is getting the excess to lay into the groove. But it can be done, just kinda have to say " oh well, if i mess up the o ring, i mess up the o ring". This is what the hold up was, me not wanting to actually mess something up. So thank you to MMR for helping out, I apologize if this came off as a personal insult/bash, it was not my intention. Just frustration. I do still want to point out the fact that this part was shipped from your facility, with the O-ring incorrectly installed. So whoever installed it, may want to have a talk with them so that this doesn't happen in the future. And it wouldn't hurt to maybe print up a instruction, tips, sheet and toss in the box for someone to refer to before having to bother someone at MMR and or post on forums to see if anyone else had the same issue etc etc. Anyway, it is resolved and thanks again for the help MMR.
