I had to order a 3/16" wood chisel to cut the gasket out. I'm pretty sure they vulcanized it to the plastic groove. I'm in the mechanical field and that was probably the hardest gasket to remove. It was totally ridiculous
Thank you very much! I replaced the gasket six months ago, but it began leaking again. Watching your video showed me two things I did wrong: I did't use enough glue and didn't move the valve to closed. After I let it set overnight, I'll make sure it is working properly.
I own a pool buisness. Every gasket I have ever seen replaced leaks within a month or 2. It is a factory seal. The only way to truly fix this issue is the replace the whole valve.
When I open my multiport, the gasket area is submerged in water and it is impossible to get glue to stick. How do I empty water from the multiport so I can glue down the new gasket?
Hi I have an issue the kreepy krauly works then stops if I switch off the pump and switch it on again the kreepy starts to work then stops again after a while not sure why
Leak at the top valve cover is either 2 things. Bad valve cover gasket or crack in the valve cover. Try removing the handle and rebuild the valve cover. Look for hairline cracks.
I wish my old gasket came out like that! Mine has taken me two weeks chipping away in frustration! Mine was super glued everywhere
Mine as well. Horrible design!

I hope I haven’t just superglued mine, because I used the tube that comes with the new gasket🤦🏽
It's because he's replacing a replacement.

Thanks for your video, I like the idea of keeping the port closed for 12 hours to keep pressure on the gasket.
Awesome. Keep creating content 👌🏾
Thanks ... such a nice easy to follow concise video.... love the pool team btw
Just finished the job. I think tweezers work best to remove the glue and clean the ridges before replacing the gasket

Do we need to release pressure from the tank prior to removing the port cover?
Where can I get the proper size spider gasket and washers
Great job. I’m on it.

What if I don’t have a wheel gasket port and water is coming out of the back wash pipe?
No need for silicone anywhere?
I got leak at the top. Dont know why

@jake_3946 i replaced and no leaks. There was a crack dont know why
better no glue, otherwiise when yuo have to replace it with a new gasket you'll have a lot of problems to remove the old one

I agree...what tool did you use to remove the stubborn remnants of the old gasket?
@reneguzman5436 I used a flat head screw driver and pliers. I did use WD 40 to help soften the old gasket too
I feel your pain ! Same issue trying to clean out those grooves😤
In my case i used a stanley knife and flathead screwdiver and a lot of patience 😇😖
