assembly lube, brake grease, white lithium grease, and any other product that isn't petroleum based. petroleum is absorbed by the rubber and will expand it rendering it void and useless. (no wd40, liquid wrench, etc.) For the most part they should go in pretty easily unless there is debris or a bur stopping it. have fun!

I wiped a little gasoline on the O-rings and that made it easier, but still not easy. According to this post, that was a bad idea, as gas is petroleum based. I figured it was safe... (heck, you lube your oil filter seal with oil, wipe your coolant lines with coolant, why not your fuel parts with fuel?)
I then tightened down the fuel rail and I think I might have bent it a little, so be careful and use the lube they mention here!
