That's what I did and it still leaked. I put oil in it maybe a day or two later. I'm going to try letting it dry a bit first so it's more solid before I torque it. To me it makes more sense that way because you're letting it harden up a bit so when you do torque it, it will seal up better instead of just squeezing out the sides.
What is it, 6-7 ft lbs. is what I torqued it down to last time, starting at the opposite corners and criss crossing.
