Hello Doug. When replacing a spider gasket it is typically not necessary to apply glue or silicone to the entire underside of the gasket. Apply the silicone in key areas such as at the junction of every spoke and in the middle of every spoke junction on the outer ring's circumference. Clean the diverter face to remove any leftover spider gasket remnant and/or rough spot. Lubricate the diverter face and spider gasket prior to reassembly.
