The easiest way to keep the external filter's gasket in its place is to UPS it
back
to TRF and exchange it for a spin-on filter kit.
I've seen too many lunched TR motors on account of the stock canister filter.
Unless you're at 98 points concours and you never drive your TR, what's the
point
of having one of those leaky antiquities? Unless, of course, in the truest
sense
of preservation you're using vintage-1967 non-detergent SB motor oil and other
authentic chemicals.
Actually, patience is your best ally with the canister. Luck is second best.
