Rubber inserts need on rebuild?
Just a quick question. After taking apart my blown rebuild I find that there are no rubber inserts on the corner seals. I know this had nothing to do with the engine blowing, but since I am now rebuilding the engine myself, I am wondering if its common practice to not install the rubber inserts on the corner seal plugs. If it makes any difference, the apex seals the rebuilder used were Atkins.
Thanks
Thanks

i wouldnt put a motor together without them. when i tore apart my motor for a rebuild it had them in there, they were a little melted, but otherwise fine. i think they keep the apexseals roughly in the right place. but you can get solid corner seals too
