Hey guys, I just received a brand new ULE Custom from Tunaman. It's as pretty as can be, but I ran into a problem as soon as I gassed it up.
It seems to be leaking from the seal that goes into the valve (or somewhere in the valve itself). After this leaked for a few seconds, my tank started venting air from the asa. Since my tank (crossfire high pressure 68ci 4500psi) had issues, I tried my friend's (same specs, only centerflag) to see if that made a difference. The marker didn't leak at all, but as soon as I pulled the trigger, it fired twice and began to leak air down the barrel at a pretty quick rate.
Does this sound like something is wrong with the tank(s)? On a side note, my friend then screwed his tank into his RT Pro and it worked fine. Maybe the rt's velocity is up too high?
I need to troubleshoot this baby tonight because I am definitely taking it out to the field tomorrow! I've emailed Tuna but thought I'd post on here as well to hear your diagnosis.
Thank you all for the help!
