I'm still having a slight drip past the metal crush rings so I guess the 6 rings I just bought aren't going to do me much good. :roll eyes:

I'll pick up some fiber ones for the next change. I've re-torqued it to spec but it won't completely stop leaking.

I appreciate the offer; if I can find them locally would be good. Does Lowe's/Home Depot carry them in their hardware dept?
