Tuning Cockers

[jhaney]

Do any of you guys know how to tune a cocker. I just got my first cocker and I know that they require tuning pretty often, but I don't know how to tune them soo if anyone could help me out that would be great.

[trains are bad]

They don't need tuning often, once they're tuned they should be good to go. I can get one shooting nicely, but I'm self taght, and I'm sure there are some super tuning tricks out there, better procedures and such.

if you havnt replaced any pnues on it and its new it should be already timed and shooting perfectly

the only time you ever need it to get timed is when you replace any pnues or its been a year
other than that all you have to do id grease you ram a little and clean you gun and oil your bolt DO NOT OIL YOUR BOLT IF IT IS A DELRIN BOLT

don't f--- with it and you'll be fine. They actually require less daily maintenance than almost any other gun. The thing about them is you'll have to time them occasionally (like maybe once a year) and sometimes clean and lube the 3-way orings if they start to get sticky. Aside from that there's not much you need to do to a cocker.... put a couple drops of oil in your ASA once in awhile, and keep your bolt clean (and lubed if it's not a delrin bolt). That's it.

And like the other guy said, you can learn a lot about timing and cocker problems from this (http://www.accesswave.ca/~devon/timingmx/TIMINGMXv11.html) link.

There's not a whole lot to it, really. They only require a lot of tuning when you're swapping timing-related parts a lot.

If you do a google search for "autococker timing", you should get plenty of information.

I agree with personman, http://www.endlesspb.com/tech/timing.html is where I learned to time cockers, it is by far the best instructional out there.
