Hi,

Just bought a used xvalve with the ULT trigger kit and the previous owner told me all that needed tuning was the ULT trigger to fit any automag.

So I aired her up with the xvalve and she started leaking down the barrel and firing all by her itty-bitty self. I removed the valve, removed all orings (there were 5 of them) in the firing assembly but she still leaks down the barrel and as soon as I pull the trigger she goes full auto on me.

Could this be due to my extremely standard automag body? It's one of the old SS ones.


Looked down into the trigger ***(embly) of my old valve and there's a nylon washer down there which is not present in this Xvalve's config. Could it be missing a part or am I just a moron that couldn't tune it even if God himself helped me?


So... Can anyone help me or could you point me in the direction of a diagram of the Xvalve so I could see what goes where and why?


I know questions like this is getting asked 8 times a day here, but please please. I have looked and am almost as confused as before.
Help me or ignore me please! :D

Hi Jimmy,

Since the gas is not shutting off when you pull the trigger, it sounds like you need to install/replace your on/off top o-ring(s), numbers 22 & 23 in this diagram:

More than likely it is #22.

Since it is leaking down the barrel while the trigger is not pulled, it sounds like you have a leak in your powertube which means a damaged carrier o-ring (#8 in diagram) or a carrier that is too large.
Tune your LVL 10 and that problem will go away:

Thank you.

Will check it out tonight.



And of course I didn't remove any o-rings as I said. I removed SHIMS!!! There's a difference methinkz! :tard:


But great thanks. Will you marry me? :wow: :rofl:
