Is the leak coming from the ASA itself or from the reg? I had a leaking problem w/ the Maxflo's on my Shockers. If it starts before you finish screwing the tank in it may be the ASA and it's venting out of a little hole. Try putting a tank O-ring in the ASA before you put the tank on. The pin that pushes the tank is to long on the ASA's. If the leak is not from there but from one of the 2 holes that connect the ASA and reg. you might try taking it apart and redoing the teflon tape that holds part of the fittings in and use some Dow 33 on the other ends.
