SO I have to take it apart again. While I am cursing my forgetfulness, I realize that I have a cork seal that is needed in the Bell assembly of the Torque tube, but don't know where it goes. There was only the one gasket spacer on the unit holding everything closed (even though the manual says to start with four) The manual says to preassemble the bell for a certain check, but not with the cork seal installed. My question is: Where the heck does the cork seal go anyway? I can't seem to find anyplace it is needed.
