this may sound off beat but in the shop where i used to work, i used carb cleaner. i'm sure someone will say this dries out the oring, but different lubricants can too. the alcohol in the carb clean will make the oring extremely slick for a very short time, then will evaporate to make a non-slick seal. even rubbing alcohol works in a pinch. try it sometime.
