Im apealing to those of you who may have done this before and has some
experience with this problem. I have tried putting vaciline on it to
make it more slippering but that has nto worked.

Petroleum jelly can dissolve some types of o-rings. Better to use a
silicone lubricant for that application.

Since it's food safe and it doesn't spoil I tried mineral oil on an
o-ring in the kitchen spray hose thingy. It swelled up very tight and I
had to take it apart to turn it off. A new o-ring with no lube seems to
work well. (the original problem what the spray hose would dribble a
little water when the faucet was on)
