I've never had a problem with the Elring valve cover gasket staying in the grove long enough to get the cover on. It helps to lay the gasket out ahead of time, or hang itfrom one end, to allow it to straighten out a bit, and to place in the grove for a while to settle in. When pushed all the way into the grove convolutions it will hold in place fairly well. I use a bit of red RTV in the corners at the ends of the half moons the help assure no leaks.
