I recently recieved a pneumag, Im not new to mags but Its been awhile since Ive worked on one.

Here are the spes- Pneumatic intelliframe, retro valve w/ ULT and LVL-x, ule body, omega rail.

I am getting a serious leak from valvle or under body. I gassed up the frame itself and it performed fine. I also think the leak changes when I adjust rear velocity. Any other things I can to narrow the leak? Any help/ideas are apreciated. Thanks

Could it be I need to retune lvlx, or new oring kit for valve?

It sounds like o rings in the valve to me. Does the leak change if you push in on the bolt or pull the trigger slightly? Did you oil the valve?

Replace all o-rings on ULT

I pushed on the bolt when aired up- it didnt move but no change.

Do replacement o-ring come with ULT kit?

Find where the leak is coming from first. Then we can diagnose the problem.

Just use your ear. Put the gun to your ear and listen. If you still can't determine, then put it under water and see where the bubbles come out.

Leaks is uppers, I put it underwater earlier and it tells me the same thing, How would I tell between ULT and valvle?

It sounds like its comeing from the front of the valve. I believe a little comes out bewteen body and rail and sounds like some is coming down barrel.

im no expert but if it's from the front of the x-valve it can be a power tube o-ring. You can order these from ASD's website or i can send you a few if we trade. lmk?

maybe yours has a similar problemThe middle oring isn't an oring. Its a split spacer. It is supposed to have the crack in it.

i agree sounds like you need to tune the level X.
i would start there
