    Tac one heavy leak

    Hey guys..

    My tac-one is leaking heavily from the valve.
    It starts leaking when the bolt normally becomes active (1500 psi.)

    It de-airs in a matter of seconds.
    It keeps about 300 PSI input afterwards, slowly leaking. If I push the bolt in further, it leaks more heavily.

    Anyone care to help?

    Thanks!

        If it leaks down the barrel with the trigger at rest, you have a leak in your powertube.
        If it leaks down the barrel with the trigger pulled and held, you have a leak in your on/off.
        If it leaks out the back, turn down your velocity.

          Okay, just COMPLETELY took out the Level 10 and reinstalled it with the 1.5 carrier.
          Now,it seems to be leaking down the barrel with trigger at rest, so Powertube.

          Time to go down a carrier size..

          EDIT: Aired it up without powertube tip though.. >_<

              Is your sear holding the bolt in place?

              If not:
              Check your sear for damage.
              Make sure there is a 1/16" gap between the back of the trigger and the tip of the trigger rod. Check this with the safety on and the marker gassed up.
