    Ball breaks in a Warp

    I'm assuming that my Warp is the problem. During some play yesterday, I had some strings of balls that were sticking together in my Warp. This happened on at least 3 different occassions. The only way to clear the sticking balls was to remove the 90* adapter and run the Warp, forcing the balls out of the feed tube. Has anyone run into this problem, what caused it and what was done to fix the problem? I did take a hit on the Warp, could this have caused the problem?

    Thanks,
    Charles

    lube your friction disks, they need to be able to slip past the balls.

    Do you have the old metal diverter plate or the new plastic one?

    how old was the paint, was it a big bore?

      Lube the disks with gun oil or something else?

      Brand new case of Anarchy, which I believe is medium bore.

      Is it possible that I have the dwell set for too long?

        I personally use the same oil I put in my marker.

        The dwell should be about a 1/4 turn to save on batteries and to keep from double loading/crushing balls but still, the disks should be able to slip past the balls they shouldnt be able to give that much force, lube em(not too much but enough so they are slippery).

          Lubed up the disks and dropped the dwell from 1+ turns to 1/4 turn. I had all 4 jumpers in the off position and ended up using 2 to go to 1/4 turn. I'll be able to test next weekend. Thanks for the info, Havoc. You ROCK!
