There is a way to make it work with v4, but v3 is fine. I'd say forget v4
I've look at the datasheet for your 4024 and 4082 in v3. The sum of propagation delays in the "reset loop" (reset counter -> and-Gate goes low -> reset goes low again) is good enough to make a pulse that is satisfying to the reset and clock inputs.
If you wanted to increase the margin to the required minimum pulsewidth on the reset input, you could add some "piff" to the reset input (putting a pico Farads sized capacitor back into the circuit as before) to add some more delay. You may ask why we put a capacitor back in to the circuit when it made things worse the last time, well the cap that was used in v2 (?) was in the size of nano Farads, and it basically filtered out the shape of the pulse from the AND-gate into the shape of a shark fin, not even reaching full VDD for the reset input. This time it would be just a slight slowing down of the rise time to make the delay longer. I checked the 4024's datasheet for capacitance that is allready present on the input pins, and it is about 5-7pF pr input.. Thats 10-14pF for both reset and clock connected together. Connecting a 22pF cap would triple the capacitive load making it slightly slower, and not as bad as adding the 100nF as before (who is in order of 10000 times larger). You could experiment with this, but its best to have an oscilloscope to see what the signals look like when doing this.
I'm sorry if my previous post is confusing. I'm not good with language and grammars, not even in my own native language. I'll try harder.
