Testudo, the A/C gasket has sticky stuff on it on the A/C side, so it is stuck to the A/C not the roof. When you lift up the A/C the gasket goes with it. I tried tightening the bolts (three of them had worked loose), but that did not fix the problem.
I plan to move the A/C out of the way, build a collar around the opening, then move the A/C back in place and block it up using 4X4 blocks. This should allow access to the gasket on the A/C through the opening from below in order to remove the old and stick on the new.
