Maybe there is some truth to machining the gasket flanges b/c my gasket also burned out within a few weeks. I replaced it with a gasket paper cutout and a little orange permatex. The gasket paper is about 7x's thicker than the original gasket and tollerates more machining problems in the matting surfaces. My replacement gasket is now 3 months old and I've had no problems!
