Default Satio 100 intake manifold leak !

Anyone having a problem with their inverted Satio leaking fuel from the intake manifold at the point it enters the engine. It's new engine (a gallon of fuel). I've orded a new gasket set for it / is this a Satio thing or just a bad gasket?

Default Intake leak

I have a new 100 also which I had to rotate the carb 180 degrees for the throttle configuration. Mine seems to have the symptoms of an intake leak as it lingers to come back to an idle. This motor has only 2 runs on it so I will give it more time. Also, vibration seems to be high also. With a balanced prop and no spinner the tail on an Ultra stick 60 is a blurr at high motor..??

Default Saito 100

Yours must still be set up too rich, the 100 is one of the smoothest engines there is when set up correctly.
