Make sure all your gaskets are set correctly, get you some steel wool (there's different types of coarsness--I went middle of the road), and check all your bolts to make sure they're fully tightened.

Thats what i'd do.
My friends and I did, so there could be an issue.

I do need to get under there and tighten everything, but I don't have a lift. I may take it to a local shop that's reputable.

I have some jack stands and such, but I'm not comfortable or strong enough to torque those bolts from that position.
