I used the neoprene gasket and opened up the holes a bit with a x-acto knife. Like Nige said, the groove will seat itself into the slot when you tighten down the 3 mounting screws, and as you tighten up the screws, the lever movement gets firmer. I had to tighten up my 3 screws pretty good to keep it from leaking, so my lever was really firm at first, but is finally starting to loosen up after a year and 600 miles or so. My ptecock has been working fine with zero leaks, but I was tempted to switch over to the unit Spokes and others are using successfully .

Spokes, did you purchase that $59.98 petcock kit on eBay or do you have another source for just the adapter plate? Reason I ask is that I already have the petcock (they're inexpensive); I just need the adapter plate. Thanks!
