    RT Pro valve reg leaking/bolt stick?

    First: I do have an X-Valve repair kit on the way.

    Now, my set up is:
    RT Pro valve with Level 10 and Pure Energy HP preset reg.

    Reg/velocity adjuster leak:
    My valve leaks through the velocity adjuster and small top/back hole when ever I have more than 1100 PSI in my tank. It blew out 2000 PSI in a few minutes and once it is below 1100 PSI it leaks just a tiny bit from the small hole on the side of the forward half of the valve.
    This happened a few seconds into the second game I used it for while rapid-firing.

    Before my leak:
    If I don't fire it for a few minutes the trigger will act as if I don't have enough pressure for it to fire but still have enough pressure to set the trigger rod. I don't think it's a Level 10 problem because my old Classic valve with Level 7 was the same.
    I can take care of this by tapping the back of the valve on a bunker before each game but it would be nice to fix so it works like it should.

    Thank you very much for any help!

    Sounds like you need a thorough cleaning and a new reg seat o-ring.

      Great, I expected it to be something more complicated... But then again it is a Mag

      Thank you very much!

        I'd go with a good cleaning first. That fixes most problems with mags.
        Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

          Figured it out, my reg piston was just older than the LvL 10. I have a new piston on the way. For the time being I have my Mag working with the LvL 7 spring as long as I don't rapid fire a long string.

          Thanks for the advice!
