I was replacing seals on oil return line from turbo, distributor seals, oil filter adaptor seal. It all went well, other that it took me awhile.

Today I fill the car with oil and started it and immediately there's a lot of leaking like almost pouring from the oil cooler areal where I put in the black seal.

I was wondering if i tightened it enough or what else could be the problem.
I put it onto a little bit of silicone grease between two flat surfaces on the oil adapter and on the oil cooler. Then I tightened it as well as I could with and adjustable wrench. I admit i might have not done a good job with tightening it well enough, but this much leaking its awful.

Did i do it right, as far as placing the seal. I did not find any groove to put it in.

thanks a buch

car is 95 944T auto with 129K miles on it.
