Cylinder O’ring omitted

I forgot to install the o’ring on the sleeve when doing top end ! Almost completed and noticed it ! New cylinder , piston and rings . Should I tear it back down and install ? Thanks[...]

It is there for a reason, when you start cutting corners it will cost you more in the long run. It took me a long time to realize that you need to do things right rhe first time or keep doing it over until it is right.
