      Turn down the velocity.

      If that STILL doesn't work, replace the reg piston.

          How much oil do you put in the air inlet of the gun? I find that if I over-oil my emag, it leaks out the back until I shoot the excess out of it. Sometimes I have to physically have to take the valve apart and wipe the excess oil away from the reg valve pin o-ring and reg seat. I typically drop about 5 drops in my quick connect line. However, if I only shot less than 1000 - 1500 rounds the time before, then I sometimes have an excess oil problem.
          Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

              thanks for the replys it is fixed but there is a new problem. is it common for the lx to stop working if u are shooting 230fps. lx is works on air pressure right. it was a crappy feild any ways.

                  Yes, you need to run the LX at pressures somewhere above 260 (at very least). Any lower and you'll have problems.

                      If you operate at a lower velocity, the chamber pressure will be lower as well. To compensate, you will have to use the shortest spring. Hopefully, you should get the gun tuned to operate at that lower velocity.

                          Do you have an x valve, or an older rt valve. On my retro valve with lvl 10, I have to turn my velocity down then turn it up until it can fire again or else it will vent like that. Sombody told me once that this is a problem specifically to the retro/pre-x valve rt valves when they have lvl 10 installed.
                          I also have an newer x rtpro valve, and it dosen't have the problem my retro has.
