I use the McLeod tob, and had the same problems as noted elsewhere, but found a simple fix. I noticed that the orings inside the tob did not fail, but the orings McLeod used on the banjo fittings where the source of the problems. After having a couple of failures, I decided that the original design was at fault so I combed a partshouse bin and found some orings that were rubber and brake fluid resistant and used these to replace the gum type rings that McLeod uses. No problems since the fix, well over 7000 miles ago and I use a very strong clutch set up. In spite of all of this, I would definitely recommend an external unit IF POSSIBLE, as they are one heck of a lot easier to service in case of trouble!
