Good instruction but strikes me that if you are going to all that trouble, fit proper gaskets, don't fudge it with tin foil!
You only end up doing it more often. They aren't all that expensive and will last you years again.

That's for sure. I wouldn't use tin foil either. Hadn't noticed the second page instruction on doing that. Get the proper gaskets.
