alrighty my shop thought they fixed this once and they did but it came back today. its leaking right out of the front block on the side of the gauge(in between it and the gun). the o-ring is pushing out and actually showing(like pinchin itself out of the gun) I got rid of the o-ring and teflon taped it up pretty good(since with the o-ring it was too big and not goin in all the way so thus I couldnt screw it in) but its still leakin, any ideas?

Wait is it leaking from where your gauge screws into the VA or were the VA goes into the gun.

Lube the orings so they swell a bit when you put em in.

Worked on my TES.

the oil trick worked but now I think its leakin from the gauge. Im not entirely sure but it feels more like it(kinda hard to tell) maybe it need to be re-tefloned?

If it is coming from the gauge the only way to fix it is to re-tape it.
