OK Dumb question time - it appears the Malpassi on the Lynx leaks - first it was the two alloy housings being loose, plus a small weep around the pressure gauge threads. New pressure gauge is in the car now and it appears to maybe have a small weep still...

How are people getting these thigns in and not leaking? Is it really a case of cranking up the fittings as tight as they can go and hoping? Or is there a magic sealant people are using?

Note I did the teflon tape thing on the weekend and think that fixed it - but I generally don't like using those sorts of band-aid approaches so I'm looking for ideas...
