Hopefully someone on here can help me solve some issues with my egomag. Here's the story:
I bought an egomag on in the BST that wasn't fully tuned. I knew this beforehand so no biggie there. When I gassed it up and turned it on, I could fire one shot, but would have to wait for pressure to build up before the ram could fully actuate and fire again. Think billy ball (for those that haven't heard about it, a quick search on either pbn or mcarterbrown will fill you in
) I tried troubleshooting it myself. I turned up the LPR a bit and when that didn't help, I took apart the ram to see if there was anything I could fix. I took off the o ring on the plunger seat to let it slide better and superglued the plunger to the plunger seat to keep it from falling out (If these terms are incorrect, please advise). This didn't help either so I turned the LPR up further. This blew a hose, possibly damaged the solenoid, and prompted me to search the BST for a good used intelliframe.
I guess paintball withdrawal and winter idleness prompted me to look for a way to get the egomag up and running. I purchased a micro rock from palmers and a new mpa3. The plunger on the mpa3 came loose so it will have to be superglued before further testing. I swapped my old one in, but no luck. I'm still getting one usable shot and then having to wait several seconds before I can fire again. The x valve I'm using has a ult in it, if that has any bearing on the situation.
So, any solutions come to mind? A new or different solenoid might have a faster recharge rate. The solenoid currently in the gun is the SMC SY113A-SG-PM3. The best idea I can think of is to send the entire setup and extra parts to someone who knows what they're doing.
