I replaced a new cartridge to my printer and now is not printing. Before I tried to refill the cartridge and it did not work, it was leaking black ink. Now with the new cartridge it does not work either....

Canon PIXMA MX860. Turn it off. Open it and check if the black ink leaked inside most especially on the cartridge panel. Clean there using surgical spirit or petrol using a cloth.
Fit the cartridges in their actual point (Black and Color). Connect its power and USB cables and then switch on. This should work for you.

My Canon printer MX860 will get half low on ink and freeze up with error U163 telling you to replace the ink cartridge. Is there a way to override this error so you can use the remaing ink?

This just happened with my MX860. I pushed the "Stop" button on the far right of the control panel and held until it beeped. Appears to do some kind of a reset. After that, the U163 error was cleared and it printed again. Don't know how long it will go before that happens again but it is working for now. Hope this helps.

Error code U140 check ink because I used a non-OEM cartidge

You need to buy the ink with the new chip installed, or buy a resetter. The only way to print now is with a new cartridge either Canon, or with a new chip.
