    BIGOH, welcome to the forum (uh... you've been here as long as Matt and I, so let's try - WELCOME TO POSTING!! )
    Here's a link to doing the Hayward gaskets (and a link within a link to another discussion of the process) https://poolforum.com/pf2/showthread.php?t=6232. Don't worry too much about brand on the 'how to', they all work ~ the same (as long as it's a 6 position multiport and not a 'push/ pull' type) - but you do want to get the right replacement parts, so be sure that they match up properly.

    If you need any more help/ advice/ tips - just ask!
    Luv & Luk, Ted

    Having done construction and service for 4 pool companies in 4 states starting in 1988, what I know about pools could fill a couple of books - what I don't know could fill libraries

    I'm pretty sure I didn't sign up in 1969 - don't think I could type (or swim) then, actually, come to think of it, Bill gates was what - maybe 10 and likely doing anything BUT inventing DOS and the internet was somebody's pipedream - how far we've come - gotta love technology!
    Wow, that's just....weird - I started writing this and my (our) join dates were Dec. 1969, after posting it, we moved to Jan 1970.......freaky......

    Thanks guys! The fix was very easy. I matched up gasket at local pool supply store. They suggested using a small amount of vinyl pool cement to secure the gasket. Anyway I'm up and running with no leaks! If my memory serves me correctly I became a member in 2002. I'm not sure why is says 1969.
