Tom,
I bought a powerfeed mag classic [it's perfect] and a flatline 68ci tank used from some guy on the west coast. The first time I played with it, the output was fine. It did have creeping pressure about halfway through the day. I tried to prevent that by keeping the tank OFF every time I wasn't playing, and shooting out the pressure when it creeped. My mag valve works fine on my friends crossfire, but the flatline has horrendous drop off. I mean like...going like 3bps, the first ball will be fine, the second shorter, and the third barely makes it out of the barrel. Pressure gauge goes from 800psi to 600-400psi to 400psi if i keep slamming the trigger.
I've put some oil on the reg. seat o-ring, but I haven't done much else. When I filled my tank for the 4th time this morning, after it was done, I heard a leak. I thought it was the fill nipple, but a little spit showed bubbles all around the seam where the tank goes into the regulator. That kinda scared me.
What can I do to fix this? My flatline SN is FL 00367, so it's pretty old. Do flatlines have 'stars' like mags do? I'd just like you guys at AGD to look at it, rather than some bozo from boston paintball.
BTW, i'm 15.
What are my options?
Thanks,
Jason
