You live and learn, my first attempt lasted around 10k and nuked. Tried again, and it lasted 100K plus.

not being critical...but if a bolt won't torque just leaving it is pretty bad and that's all I was saying. sometimes the way people learn is having mistakes pointed out; that's how I learn

if the threads pulled it was even worse because there was no way it would seal - but if the head had been pulled no matter what was wrong could have been caught and fixed...just leaving it was a bad call, no matter what the issue was.

im calling it out so people can learn from it - that's it.
