I recently got my impulse and i plugged in sum air and was ready to shoot..i noticed a huge leak in the gun so i took it aqll apart and saw that the valve seat orings were all busted up. i bought so new orings and ready to go. wehn i tried putting them in i noticed that wehn i pushed the valve seat past the little screw hole sumthing sharp was ripping the orings in half.. there is no easy way to put this valve in without ripping the orings.. any suggestions??:confused:

Take the post to the tech forum, this is more for technology questions rather than troubleshooting. But people should be able to help you there.

replace the orings, but put the valve in through the back of the impulse, not the front. The threads in the front will cut the orings up, as you have seen already. Just take the ram assembly and hammer out the back, then push the valve out with a dowel or some other long, blunt object. Reverse the process to put it back in.

i've done this many times

you gotta push the valve through the back of the impulse body

in the front, the air inlet to the solenoid will tear the o-rings
