I just got my Retro valve and it came with these 4 brass spacers. The instructions that came with the valve did not say what they are for.. The spacers are different sizes with numbers on them. Any help would be appreciated.

Did the valve or gun come with a video? If it did, I suggest watching it. Because it shows exactly where those parts go. (There are also exploded diagrams on www.airgun.com of the valve and every gun.)
But to shorten this process- these spacers go in the powertube. The go in between the powertube tip and the o-ring at the bottom of the powertube. You go with the one that doesn't leak in the gun. These seal the air chamber until the marker is ready to fire.

Thanks for the info, I do have the video I guess I need to watch it again. I saw some other info on the spacers I have no leaks so I guess the retro valve is set ok for my gun.

Magman I highly suggest you save those spacers anyways. My ReTro USE to not have any spacers in it and it seemed to work fine for me too. However, once I started opening up on it it started to leak slightly and very occaisionally. So, I had TheTramp look at it on AO NE Day and he said it is NEEDS spacers in it to work like it should. My ReTro is so weird that even the shortest spacer (.210 or .215 I think) wouldn't work. So, I ended up putting in two PT o-rings and now it works fine. Just a word of caution.
