[QUOTE="Bob McDonald, post: 1003075, member: 54868"] +1 on checking for an extra gasket left on from the old (removed) one. Also after cleaning the mating surface when you remove the old filter, put some clean oil on the surface of the new filter gasket. Cinching down on the filter when there is a dry mating surface will give misleading indication of if it tight enough. [/QUOTE]
