Hey guys,

I have been having trouble with my marker lately and dont know exactly what it could be.

Ok. I have an xvalve and i am unsure if it is a level 10 bolt or not but when i go to pull the trigger sometimes all i get is a "Pshhh" And no paint comes out. I have another mag that does this only when there isnt enough air in the tank.

What can i do to fix it.

The X valve doesnt have any stars on it so does that mean i can send it all in and get it looked over?

I am thinking about sending it in anyway. Where do i send it to and what all should i include in the package?

thanks.

do you have enough air in the tank? when it makes that pss sound does it still shoot?

Is your velocity turned up? For the level 10 to do that, i would say it's the velocity.

if air is coming down the barrel check the powertube shims. go to the smallest and work up from there.

If i send it to AGD would they fix that? Or do i have to fix it on myown. I'm not too worried about fixing it but if i can have a pro do it i'd rather that.

just read some forums, it could be your level 10 , you might have to invest in some time, a few hours, i similar problem with my level ten, so i went up a carrier on my level ten and it stop. i wouldnt take it in , it may cost you tons and tons of money.

i'll keep reading forums and stuff, But any one else have an idea and what can i do to remedy it? i mean its not that big a problem but i cant shoot the gun very fast. maybe its just my velocity, I'll try to get her up and running again tomorrow after work.

Make shure your using a High pressure output tank, use the shortest spring it came with, make shure your velocity is up, use the loosest carrier that will not leak, and start with 2 L10 shims. All of these items should get your marker firing. Then you can fine tune it. one

well with a lvl 10 bolt that sound is the sound it makes instead chopping a ball. x valves come with a lvl 10 bolt. are you using a gravity feeder? if your hopper doesnt feed fast enough youll get that . chances are good that the sound you are hearing is the lvl 10 bolt working just the way it should.

To tell if you have a L10 bolt remove the bolt and look at the base. If it has a hollow steam that sticks outof the bottom it's a L10. Either Email Tuna at tunaman5@comcast.net for shims or get them from AGD online store.
