Good idea with the o ring. I actually found on one of my bikes the stock gasket was not cut out enough on the inside so the top of the throttle slide would run into it, and it was keeping the throttle slide from opening all the way. First i cut the hole bigger so the slide would clear, but there was no top seal on my other bike at all and it worked fine, so I eventually got rid of it entirely, no difference that I noticed…even if you seal around the cap and the screws, the throttle cable and elbow are not air tight anyway.
