Quick question!

Just a quick side note. More than once I have found that if you install the bulkhead dry you end up with a slow drip no matter how tight you do it up. You need to take the rubber gasket and dip it in some water so it's surface is wet. It makes a better seal and will not drip. It seems to be counterintuitive to get something wet to keep it dry. Lol. Trust me it's worth the effort. Saves taking it all apart because if a slow leak.

Thank you davej, I was actually considering that but didn't do it. Luckily I still have time to moisten my gaskets, lol!
