air line on SHP

[RT Lover]

Guys I fired the shp and it was wild, but when I backed the tank off air was leaking out of the main port!!! I played with it some and ended up losing all my air...Wtf this was suppose to be a like new tank. I though I just saw a write up on how u shouldn't drop oil in the tank.....?

oil and tank = Booooommm

I'm not getting what you mean by " leaking out if the main port".

Part that screws into the marker...the reg?

[OPBN]

Which part is leaking? Is it leaking from the area that screws in? If so, this is a bad o-ring.

If it is leaking from the reg, empty it out, disassemble the bonnet like you are changing the shims, and inspect the piston. If the o-ring and seal look ok, re-lube and try it again. I had a used one do that to me, but ever since I cleaned and re-lubed the piston, it has been fine. Or send it Ninja, they will probably take care of it. It's kind of fun to tinker with the shims anyway, and see what it does to the RT.

It's a little allen wrench and a 2-1/2 inch screw. They should have come with the reg.

Ok. I thought he meant that when the tank was screwed into the ASA it was leaking. And you can put a couple of drops of oil into the ASA. You cannot put a few drops into the fill nipple of the tank.

You can put oil on co2 bottles without much hassles, NOT HPA tanks.

I called Ninja and he said good chance there is dirt in there, he also said they have a hp line that I can hook from my scuba to my ninja tank while it is screwed in my mag and would work just fine? Sounds good to me but does this sound right? Lol ty

They have been making fill "whips" and lines for a while. Our field refills all of their HPA rentals with the tanks on the markers. They (ninja) have a "slide check" that will shut off the air and vent the connection to make it easy to pull off the quick disconnect.

(Scuba adapter) to (fill line with slide check) to (bottle on marker) should be good. You just need to be sure all of the fittings match up. I use a similar setup for my single shot marker, which needs to be refilled every shot.
