Default one o-ring left?

Okay I did a cam change on my 13 Limited and used the H-D cam service kit. But have one little O-ring left over any idea where it goes?

Where it's supposed to go? Can't really answer with so little info, it is possible that they got an extra o-ring in the package, hopefully. If you used a service manual it should have shown where they all were needed, have you started the engine up since you finished?

You used three between the cam plate and the case right?

How small is it, is it possibly for the oil drain plug?

Yeah it has been started and oil pressure was good. I used all six of the push tube rings. I only found a place for two between the case and plate on the left side. Then the one for the oil pump. The cam plate uses three? The extra one is too small for the drain plug.

Those are the three. Sounds like you're fine. I do remember a little bitty O-ring being in my kit and it was used on older Cam plates but it's probably not used on yours. Bunch of changes in that area over the years...

I was going to say Oil pump but you mentioned that. You don't say what kind of bike you have in your profile. But since this is the touring section I assume it's a touring bike. You might want to watch this video and see if you missed anything. If it was a Softail with an oil tank, I'd advise checking the oil level after it sat for a few days to make sure the oil didn't drain out of the oil tank into the crankcase, which would mean you missed something.
