Hey guys,
99977
Picked up this classic mag for pretty cheap... it is VERY similar to the one I sold when I was 18 after spending a ton of money (at the time) upgrading everything (in other words... it is the one that got me to fall in love with them... and it got away)... Selling that mag was when my life went all wrong...
Anyways... working on bringing it back to life.
Changed the piston O ring this evening... and replaced the on/off with an RT one I had laying around (because it had good o rings)... and also put in a fresh reg seat... it has the ANS 10 hole bolt...
basically the only o rings that haven't been changed are the reg body o ring... and the power tube tip o ring.
When I air it up I am getting a leak out of the bolt... and it won't cycle... but pulling the trigger does cause the leak to stop.
I am thinking maybe it is the spacer in the power tube... maybe it needs a different size. Not really sure. Been a long long time since I've messed with a classic valve.
Any thoughts? I kind of expected when I changed out the on/off and replaced the piston o ring I would be good... but doesn't seem to be the case.
