Leaky Nitrous Express filter My filter is leaking 
where the filter "case" is put together... 
anyone else have this happen? i want to take it apart and seal it with some thread sealer but dont want to mess it up so i cant exchange it. kinda pricey for such a simple little part. here is the part.

I know they are not supposed to leak, but aren't they designed to be opened up, cleaned and reassembled? Maybe it just needs to be tighened up? I got the same filter so I am curious to your outcome.
If it is leaking out of the fittings that screw in the end of the unit just take and locktite the fittings in. If yu can not get it to stop leaking Call NX directly and they will have you send it in for warranty.
