Weber Frustration

I have reassembled my Webers after rebuild and cannot get a good seal at the needle value cover plugs. I'm using the aluminium gaskets called for. Does anyone have a tip?

Thanks in advance,

Rob

I always put a small amount of grease on the threads. Sometimes they can be a bear to get off after tightened down. It also let you get a even pull to seal.

I got them to seal by applying more torque. Thanks to all.
