I would think the ceramic housing must be slightly loose on the bottom. Too many fine threads on mouthpiece to move (unless its the telescopic one-then I have no knowledge).

So i just rebuilt my Ithaka and the mouthpiece is super loose as I thread it on the ceramic housing :(. It really juggles around until I put on the top 2 pieces then its just vertical play i haven't ever dropped it or anything the only thing I've done different is cleaned everything with a toothbrush last weekend ugh so no one else has this issue?? I mean its not a Hugh deal it doesn't affect the performance at all I just don't understand why it started doing this. I have a mouthpiece for drip tips coming from COV I suppose I'll just have to try that one on when it comes in and see if I have the same issue if I don't its the mouthpiece if not then its the housing either one is a bummer since my Ithaka is fairly new and I'm guessing this isn't normal since I've not seen anyone else post about it :(

Just to check I took the top cap off (with o-ring) & then mine is too. With cap screwed on its very stable-no looseness.
Ahh thats a relief to be honest because the vertical play is minimal I wouldn't even call it a mm but you pull that cap off and boy it flops all around lol

I'm glad it's not just me. I had to brush 80% of the outer housing because I couldn't stop obsessing over the fingerprints :). Though it looks very nice I must say image.jpg

If the ceramic holder threads are tight in the base, the MP is probably faulty. Send Bruce an email.

I have two mp's and both do the exact same thing I just video taped it and sent it to Bruce. Im going to take it apart and play with it some more once i pull through this 4 ml of juice i put in it.
