We ALL are anxiously awaiting to hear the rumble. If you can, a video would sure be nice! LOL. But if you can't, an explanation that all is well will be good news indeed! Thanks for the update.
Did you try to re tighten the bolts after it was hot? Next take them back off, the gaskets, and see where it is leaking.
Ok, it still leaks, BUT the good news is you're headed in the right direction.
