Default Will an LSD lock up all the time with the wrong fluid? Or is this thing F'ed

Just got the new swap running... Its a y1 lsd in a standard 91 ls tranny... no problems with installation - it fits great... However, it locks on tight corners, but only under power... it corners just fine with the clutch disengaged.... Its a clutch type LSD... Will the wrong fluid cause this to lock up like this? (imagine turning something with a welded diff.. the wheels fight eachother).... axels are brand new...

Basically i just want to know whether or not this thing is junk and i need to talk to the seller asap, or if im just running the wrong fluid...
