Has anyone had trouble getting the oil filler tube to seal. I have used a new gasket and it's a new tube filler but I can't seem to stop it from leaking

Oil filler tube leak
Hi all,
Has anyone had trouble getting the oil filler tube to seal. I have used a new gasket and it's a new tube filler but I can't seem to stop it from leaking

Re: Oil filler tube leak
Yes - had the same problem for ages. Changed the gasket, changed the studs, tried all different types of nuts and it still leaked.
Then used a thin smear of Curil-T on the gasket and that solved it.
