    Leaking out the back w/ LX

    Here's the scoop:

    I have a small leak out the back. It was not there before i installed level 10, and did not begin to leak untill i increased the velocity to bring the fps to 250. At this setting, i get a very slight leak out the back of the valve, when i turn the velocity down, the leak stops untill i fire a few times at whcih point the leak starts up again. I've tried only replacing the reg-seat with no luck. I'm not sure if this is actually from level 10 or just from an o-ring in the original valve. by the way, the valve is just a normal 68 Automag valve. Everything is original with the exception of level 10.

    Thanks for your help.

    Its the reg piston.. I think AGD has tuned the new pistons to allow more pressure before venting. This of course changed after LVL10 release since the pressure does have to be turned up since the bolt vents a little pressure out. Call AGD, not sure if they give you a new one, sell you one discounted or what..but I can assure you... you need a new piston
