emag/lvlx problem

[bmexline]

gun worked perfectly last week.

i always put oil in it before playing so it was well lubed.

my lvlx seemed to be activating on a regular basis and at random. sometimes it would do it when firing quickly, then sometimes when just pulling every second or so. it would especially kick in on the first trigger pull after not firing for a little while. i tried upping the velocity an that didnt fix it. i am using the middle spring which i have been using w/out any problems for a long time now. the other problem was that it would not reset the bolt. it would kick in and just sit there and eventually reset or i figured out that i could put the safety on and then off and it would reset the bolt. my setup for the last couple months has been 2 shims, middle spring, 1.0 carrier. i tried adding a shim and taking one away and i didnt notice a difference in the performance. the bolt isnt leaking or anything like that. to me the bolt not resetting seems like a shim issue. why its activating so much, i dont know. i tried adjusting the detent, thinking it was holding the ball too strongly causing the lvlx to kick in, but that didnt seem to make a difference either.

any suggestions?

carrier too tight?

[bmexline]

i dont think so. i have never heard of a carrier oring getting tighter. i thought they always loosened up with use. it slides on rather easily. i know rogue says that they should be loose enough that it will slide down the tube when held vertical by itself. mine isnt that loose but it has been working fine for months now. ill try a different carrier just to see.
thanks for the suggestion

i went up to the 1.5 carrier that doesnt seem to have made much of a difference. it MIGHT be a little better but not much. i tried the 2.0 but it leaks. temps were in the high 50's low 60's. think that could have anything to do w/ it? only other thing i can think of is that i normally shoot marbs or blaze and yesterday all they had was pmi premium. so im now on 1.5 carrier, 2 shims, middle spring.

Check your bolt spring. It may be worn out if it has seen lots of use. This could lead to the bolt not resetting properly after you have fired even though you have the proper carrier size.
