Leaking new subtank mini

[DrMark]

Just taken delivery of my 2nd subtonic mini having finally got the first one rebuilt to my taste.  I noticed that the rebuildable deck which used to have a screw thread collar now has a slip on collar with a small grub screw to secure it.  Put in a coil wicked and juiced up - took about 3 mins for the juice to leak out all over my cloupar mini.  Oped it all up again and all seems tight. I am guessing that the new configuration of the collar on the rebuildable deck is not leak proof.  
Any one else found this?
Any suggestions?

Cheers
Mark

The difference between the old one and this new "plus" version is that it wicks through the side holes and not via the bottom slots so you need to gently push your wick against the holes.
ETA: there is no need to remove the tiny side screw to remove the side section ... Simply loosen it enough to slip the side off and don't overtightened it on replacing it. I have never known mine to leak from the new plus type side.

As yinyang said DrMark, there is a difference in wicking methods. The plus type rba (with the screw) needs the wick to completely seal off the holes in the sides of the sleeve, instead of pushing it down onto the deck.

I had to little cotton in mine on Sunday and it leaked all over me. As said above.
