It will be more to do with your connectors than the di head, try changing the connectors on your hose and di head.

i think i got a duff thread from day one , it came with the elbow fittings on which leaked no matter how much ptfe tape i put on , then i swapped for the hozelock and again wads of ptfe and now its just wrecked, ive tried other fittings and it always the same , other that bonding on the fittings which is a option unless i can source a replacement, then ill have to just cough up the £60

its at the stage now that to stop water spurting out ive got to wrap it around untill its like a bulb and the di threads cut into the tape to hold it in place, looks like itll have to be a new bottle as cleaning spot only do the 3 way head replacement :(
