    X-valve..help?

    OK so i got my x-valve and installed it in my gun. Took it out to the field and it shot great for the first two games. After my tank got down to about 1000lbs it started to go screwy. I chopped a couple of balls which doesn't make sense because i have a level10 and then the gun just stopped shooting all together. Im sure its a simple fix like my outgoing tank pressure or i just need to tune my level 10 or something. Unfortunately i dont know where it should be set can someone help me? Also how do i determine which spacers or shims or whatever they are called will work best for my gun?

    What's the current set up carrier, shims, spring all that kind of stuff.
    anyone who tells you there are no such things as stupid questions is lying to you so they can laugh at your questions.

      Input pressure set to ~ 850psi.
      Then follow the "Fast Start Assembly Instructions" at http://www.automags.org/resource/level10/index.shtml

      For example:
      - I started with the 2 stripe carrier and two shims, which leaked as soon as gas was applied.
      - So I switched down to the 1.5 carrirer. This worked until I put about 300 dry-cycles on the o-ring. Stayed with the 2 shims.
      - Then I went down to the 1 carrier and kept the 2 shims. Works like a dream!

        Ok i went to the one striped carrier and two shims, hopefully that will work.

        considering i only had one shim to start that might have been my problem. Thanks for the advise guys.

          my x-valve just quits working at around 850 psi left in my tank. I think that's normal.
