I have a .215 spacer in my marker now but I'm getting a serious leak down the barrel. When I ordered my new Retro valve AGD sent me a whole spacer kit. The smallest spacer was the .215. My question is, does AGD have smaller spacers available? Because this leak is driving me crazy.
Thanks

I don't think they do. Did you try a bigger spacer? When mine was leaking, I needed a bigger spacer to get it right.

I thought a smaller spacer was the answer for leaking down the barrel?

could also be the powertube o ring

You might check for a worn sear or check if the O-ring is stuck in the power tube. I had one that was stuck and I made the spacer shorter and shorter with no result then I pulled the O-ring out and oiled it and it seated right in. The air has to move the O-ring down to the spacer and if it is stuck nothing will fix the leak. Just a thought I hope it helps. Good luck.

Yeah, if the PT O-Ring is in good order, rub a drop of oil onto the the oring and replace it in the valve, it usually solves the problem for me.
