There are many o-rings in reg service kits. Sometimes, o-rings for different components are very close in size.
E.g. an S-8-N85 oring and a AS568-011 o-ring look pretty similar.
What are the best practices, tips and tricks you know and use to help you ensure you don't install the wrong o-ring to the wrong part?
I currently use a vernier caliper to measure the ID and thickness of the o-rings, and count them out before I install them, to ensure I know which goes where. But this is a slow and tedious process.
Thanks!
