air leak from rear gripframe on Protege

how do i fix this leak from the rear gripframe? i took the gun apart and looked over the hoses and wiring. adjusted the pressure and still it leaks out the back of the gun, i did use a lilttle oil to lube the internals and it did seal for one day but then when i rescrewed the tank into the gun, the leak came back again. tried to put oil through the gun and cycle if through but no luck and still leaking. looked at the manual and didnt say much, any of you guys know how to fix this?

Looking at the manual wont work some times. You have to read it.

ALL Intimidators need to be lubed with Dow 55. The bolt will get TriFlow or some other paintball oil.

Rear of the grip frame, is it inside or outside? If outside, I would say its the ram cap.

If you need some Dow55, shoot Crankwalk a PM over on IOG. www.intimidatorowners.com
