Question Head orings

Either the search here sucks or I do.
What was the trick to keeping the orings in the grooves until you get the head on ?

Got it. I stretched them a bit.

Another trick I use is to coat the o-rings with some vaseline.

I did just as you did. I gently stretched them a few times and they stayed in their seats with no problems.

And if you stretch them a little too much, just throw into the freezer for a bit and they will shrink back
