    Gasket Kit

    Anybody know what the O-Rings are for, within the large engine gasket kit? They're about the same OD as the valve stem seals, but the parts diagram in the Clymer manual does not show them.

    Thanks!

    Look at items 11 and 12. They both show o-rings under them. Yamaha Motorcycle 1979 OEM Parts Diagram for Cylinder Head Cylinder Head Cover | partzilla.com

      I believe they go under the valve guides. I have never replaced the guides so I have never needed to use them.
