1. Lubricate o-rings
2. Use thicker o-rings

1&2 are not mutually exclusive.

look for some at the plumbing section of your local hardware store. Other hwd stores have "loose" parts bins where you can find them too. I think HomeDepot and some of those bigger stores might have a larger assortment. G'luck.
