Have a helper that listens to you hold the glass from the other side so you can use both hands. If you need to use tools, use plastic ones.

Does anyone know a product name for a lubricant that is used with glass rubber seals?

Thanks, Tim

Tim, I used liquid dish soap as a lubricant; any non-petroleum lube will work. I used the twine trick described in the shop manual. You will need an extra pair of hands to apply firm, even pressure while you pull the gasket into place.

edit: Sorry, Tim, you wanted a brand-name. K-Y. grin
