What kind of yoyo is it - a YYJ?  
Is the o-ring the flat silicone kind or the round rubber type?

You can use contact cement or super glue to tack down the flat silicone type. The round rubber one should just be held in w/friction.

What he said. Buy some flowable or rtve sillicon from the dollar store or a hardware store. It’s really cheap and last for ages. You might want to look at some tutorials before applying it though.
