I have a 1980 GL1000 which has had air leaking issues which I traced down to the o-rings on the right side of the bike. I removed the intake manifolds and both o-rings had been "cut" from improper installation, basically pinched between the head and the intake manifold. I ordered 4 new o-rings to replace all of them on my ride. What is the trick to keep them up in the groove during installation so they don't get pinched again? I am afraid to use high temp silicon (may create a leak) or grease (will probably burn from heat). Thanks for your help.
