bignasty1 Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 no you shouldnt have to deal with lil problems like that. my friend had that problem and it was cuz his head was warped he switched it out for a cool head and hasnt had a problem since.

NYUK Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 proper torque? tightened in the proper sequence? try a different head like these guys said,an o ringed head will seal better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
