2017 pan gasket leaking
I just bought a 2017 expedition in the previous owner had put RTV sealant on the transmission pan gasket. While fixing the molded lead frame, I scraped off all the old RTV sealant and bought a brand new pan gasket. In the gasket instructions it said to tighten bolts to 80-in pounds, however, the pan started leaking slowly around the gasket after ftlling. I'm wondering if I should have tightened it to 98 in pounds which is the spec I saw on a YouTube video. Does anyone have the pan bolt torque specs for a 2017 expedition?

For example in FordTechMakuloco Molded Lead Frame video, he says 98 in-lbs, ford-specs.com says 10 ft-lbs (120 in-lbs), and the paper that came with the new gasket says 80 in-lbs.
