As I was putting in our new dishwasher today, it occurred to me that I never epilogued this puppy.
Turns out the solution to the dribbly leak was that I didnt put enough vaseline on the o-ring (dang that sound dirty). I had been putting a fine layer on it, turns out a big glob messily smeared on the whole thing does the trick nicely.
Been enjoying filtered, dechlorinated water from every tap in the house, and the first filter DID end up fairly packed with sand and tiny fragments of gravel from the the counties new water pipe installation work.
I'm still telling the wife we need to shower together to continue "checking" the new filter though. Thanks for the tip Bum...
