These YS Engine YSS1017 back plate O-rings are supplied as service seals for RC-scale YS engine back plate joints. The items are intended as routine replacements for wear-prone sealing surfaces and should be treated as consumable parts during teardown and reassembly.
Installation is straightforward: remove the back plate, inspect the sealing groove for debris or damage, replace the old O-ring with a matching new ring from the pack, and reassemble, ensuring the mating faces are clean and properly seated. Apply a light amount of compatible lubricant where your engine manual recommends to ease fit and reduce the risk of tearing during installation.
Keeping fresh O-rings fitted helps preserve crankcase pressure and prevents fuel or oil leaks that can degrade running consistency.
