I picked up a level 7 Automag on ebay and it came with an expansion chamber described as an Air America Black Rain. The line from the back bottle to the chamber is a hardline, and it has a fattened head with a bolt similar to the bottom line or frame screw of the automag passing through it, with a round o-ring seat milled into the top of the head, and an oval seat set into the underside. The fitting has leaked from the underside (where the head bolts into the expansion chamber) since I installed it. It appeared there was some sort of silicone goop applied originally, as well as an o-ring about the size of the power tube o-ring set into the oval seat. I replaced that o-ring, with no luck. so I'm wondering if there is something else I need to apply to get it airtight, any ideas? I already tried some regular gasket sealer, that just made a mess and after 12 hours co2 still blew right through it. Thanks!
