Message	right! certain oils and certain rubber doesn't mix at all. I've seen o-ring swell about ten times bigger than normal. buna-n and viton rubber is the most resiliant of sealing rubbers. I hope the shop that replaced your seals used one of the ones mentioned above. They are also the best two if you wanted to switch to synthetics, which are even worse on sealing rubbers. my $.02 love, peace, integrity
