The rear band's adjuster is external, so I can see it gettin
crapped up, and fouling up the torque reading... then maybe
I'll just leave it alone and fix the leak.

The place that adjusted it last, installed the pan with the
massive leak.  I'd rather do that myself. I'll take the time
to do it right.
