I used the silicone recommended by Bob A. (Windshield & Glass Sealant) I think the problem with the cap still being somewhat loose against the glass neck is the gap it is filling. I should have left the original epoxy in the cap and just used a small amount of this type of silicone to get back the expected bond it had with the glass neck when new. I didn't want to go extreme like JB Weld because if one of my solder joints on the pins didn't "take" I would have had a heck of a time trying to remove it. Oh well, lesson learned. I know what to do next time this problem arises. I will just have to be careful removing the outer plug.
