If you need more help, just ask

    BTW did you try further tightening (with a wrench on both the nut and the bolt?) with the system off?
    Waste, We have checked and rechecked the gasket.. Is there any other kind of sealer we can use other than the WATER LUBE ?? Also is there a special way the bolts should be tightened.. We did the North, South East West thing like you posted before.. I'm about ready to toss it over the back fence..
