I wish you could be here to see this. I think the problem is its the NEW IMPROVED Fel-Pro Seal. Maybe the older ones cut decently. You have to see this to believe it. Now that I am going with the neoprene ones, I might try the burning method. I have been told I am a really stupid person, but puhlease!
If it doesnt cut EXACTLY thru the outer black skin, through the fabric inside and out the back side perfectly, it is either too long or too short. This is unacceptable to me. Do I want to KNOW it WILL leak because its just a hair too short? Or too long so its jamming up in the bearing housing? I mean WOW!
