Replaced the gasket on Silvia.
When I put the portafilter in and twist to straight on it still leaks. If I twist it further anti-clockwise then the drip stops (almost). So is something loose that I need to tighten?

Definitely the right gasket? Not worked on a Silvia before but any time I've replaced a group gasket it's just been a 'pop into place and lock in portafilter' job.

Yeah gasket went in fine and same size as one which came out - I'm just thinking if the part where the portafilter locks into could be loose and hence needing to turn it further to get a secure fit? maybe a shim or slightly thicker gasket...
