I have lost one set of stock "O" rings since 1980. And that time was my fault. Used rings from a junk engine that I know had been overheated. And they lasted two seasons before they gave up.
What's wrong with stock rings?

I've had more than one engines Rotor scraper rings fall out when i've taken the engine part, They where very loose.
But saying that my next engine will be using the Stock Green Oil seals..

Theproblem with the Atkins Viton seals is that they are measured in American, and Mazda uses a Metric measurement for the seals. So yes they fit like ****. the outer one is too small and is easy to cut when putting it on and the inner ones are too big and bunch in the scraper rings.
