i picked up a used Hyperflow 68ci 3k adjustable output non-screw in tank for my Emag last week. I gassed it up today, no probs, but the gauge said 500psi, not quite what i needed so i turned it up, when it got to about 700PSI it started violently leaking out of the adjusting nut, so i backed it out, no leak. So obviously i cant get the 800psi i need, any idea how to fix this problem? Is there a part i need purchase and swap out?

it's not the end of the world, all the problem is an o-ring failure... prolly not the reg pin. you can go to Fox Paintball in Dundee on rt. 31 for a rebuild kit most likely, or contact Centerflag directly.
Personally, that is one problem I haven't had on my Hyperflow regs.

That would cause it to leak at 700psi and not 500-600psi? Wouldnt a failure make it leak always? I would go to fox but I dont like getting overcharged, usually cheaper for me to buy somehting and have it shipped than to go to fox. If that is the case, ill call centeflag on monday and see what they say.

I own 6 of those style regulators. It's the O-Ring.
Sure you can order it online and save $3 on a $15 kit but pay $6 shipping + tax... or you can touch it and feel it and take it home after driving to the next town. It's your money.
