Oil 'em up good...fill with propane (from completely empty to completely full it takes about 14sec). Store them away.

I've done that consistently after each game (I also unload any remaining BBs) and have had zero issues since.

That's if your seals are already in good shape (start from day one keeping them oiled and pressured with gas). If they're all dried out from neglect...try "rehydrating" them with oil, silicone/rubber-friendly grease them, reassemble. When all 4 screws are firmly snug...give it a shot of gas and inspect for leaks. Adjust screw pressure until they don't leak anymore (carefull...you can snap the screws off with too much torque)....then just keep 'em lubed and filled with gas.
