Default Skunk2 GSR IM Problem

OK, heres the story. I purchased this IM brand new about 10 months ago. I finally got all the parts together to do my swap and did it last week. I worked out the major bugs, but now I noticed my IM has a major vaccum leak. It is coming from the big freeze plug on the end of it. I am going to call skunk2 tommorrow, but was wondering if anyone else had a problem like this. Its not a little leak where it will suck your finger to it, but it will suck your whole hand to it if you get close enough.

TIA for any input.

did the plug fall right out? or is it just leaking?

could you possibly seal it with some epoxy or something?...........it would be a bitch to have to remove it again for a replacment...........thats if skunk2 will give you a new one...........

either way good luck with it.....

It didnt come out, just pulling alot of vaccum. I dont mind taking it off if they will give me one that doesnt leak. I could fix it myself, but thats not the point...I shouldnt have to.

I talked to Skunk2 today. They told me if I want to send mine back they will replace it. If I cant afford the down time, I can purchase a new one from them and they will refund my money when they receive mine back. I think I'm going to end up going that route so I wont have as much down time.
