hello sir, i'm new to this. for some reason my cans kinda leak. any common reasons why? might these cans help?
Might check elsewhere in the forum for answers to your questions. There is a seal under the bolt, and a seal between the can and the block. the fiber seal between the can and the block should be replaced at oil changes.

Deuces leak. My cans still weep a little bit. Even after I have swapped out the gaskets and properly torqued down the bolts. I do use Rotella 10w30 motor oil in her. In my case, the thinner 10w oil may seep out a little more than a 15w or straight 30. Now that I have a circulating tank block heater on her, the next oil change will be to a 15w40 with spin on filters.
