ReTro is Being Anal

[sneakyhacker420]

last night, i rebuild everything in my retro, brand new o-rings for everything, and all of it is well oiled, and the springs are lightly greased

this morning i screwed my tank into the asa so that i could go downstairs and do some more 'test firing'

but as i screwed the tank in, air started rushing out of the side air relase hole on the retro


what should i do , everything is in the right position, well oiled, and all the goodies!?


i need help!!!

cphillip... move this if needed

[beefstew]

if you havent already gotten this answer check the seating of all of the seals you put in. thats he easiest to fix anyways

[sneakyhacker420]

all of the seals and whatnot are in the right order and are well oiled and everything... but why the hell is it doing this to me!?

turn down the velocity

[sneakyhacker420]

backed it out almost all the way... still leaks

[Schnitzel]

which hole is it escaping out of? there are 2 holes, one forward of the reg half, and one back towards the velocity adjuster. if it leaks from the forward hole, reg. pin assembly is having problems. if it leaks from the rearward hole, it sounds like the reg. piston o-ring has some problems. take a closer look at both of these orings.

omg... i fixed it!!!!!

it was a stupid little o-ring on the reg pin thingy or w/e that was cracked

Justin,

Is it working correctly now? Just FYI, Rob_AGD replaced most of the important orings before I shipped it. Let me know how it's doing.
