I think you may need TWO things to make it pop: extra fuel AND a leak to let 
air in. Eliminating either one will fix the popping, but the extra fuel may 
still indicate a problem even if it doesn't pop

Don't use the metal gaskets. Good paper gaskets will have some crush to them 
and will seal even better.
