Vinny, when I did mine I had the same trouble. Gasket sealed good one area and not another and back and forth.
Here's what I did, I had 2 tie down straps with the ratcheting levers. I place them in an X across the loosened dome and down under the base, (just like if you were tying something for travel) cranked them down good and snug then tightened the dome brackets. Tight all around after that!
