Ludwig, You're absolutely correct!. The seal between the bowl and the housing has to be there as well in order to tighten the bowl up via the little thumb dealy at the bottom of the bowl bail. I made a new gasket for mine out of some raw gasket material from NAPA and it works fine. The other two seals I mentioned in the post above seal off their respective areas. The packing nut can be tightened enough to possibly stop the shut off valve from leaking/dripping but if you get it too tight you won't be able to shut off/on the gas. The seal on the inner end of the shut off valve just keeps gas from entering the bowl from the tank when the fuel is shut off.//FB
