    leak, call dye and get an ra number.

    as for threads, just dont force them into anything they dont seem to fit into well? btw <3 my throttle, but you arent running it on a mag are you? throttles are not the best recharging tank on the market... id consider sending it back and buying a crossfire if its going on a mag, any thing else it will perform just fine.

                  I am about to get a borg and am deciding between keeping my throttle or selling it and getting a crossfire. Why do you say it is better with borgs?

                      magman007 pretty much told you all you need to know. its probably just a bad seal, send it to dye. theres not much more to it.
                      i don't think many of us own leaking dye throttles....
                      i'm not really trying to be a jerk....so i give you this --->

                        Actually just talked to our proshop owner about this same topic.

                        The new throttles come with a stainless steel insert for the threads.

                        As for the old ones stripping, yeah, it was a problem.

                        Just lube the threads with a little grease every now and then and there shouldn't be a problem.

                        Also...wheres it leaking from?

                          Crossfire is simply a better tank.

                          You could solve the stripping problem by gettong a nice on/off like a CP. Just be careful not to cross thread it when you are screwing the tank in.

                              His tank leaks from the gauge. From what I remember somebody checked and resealed the gauge and it still leaked.
