I hate my xvalve

[PBCapo]

lol, im starting to feel like dirty bunny Can someone help me out here?

got an xvalve for xmas. I hooked it up at first, without oiling anything or doing anything. I gassed it up, and i didnt get any pressure from the on/off and hence the trigger didnt get any pressure. I unscrewed the tank and posted to see waht to do. Some one said put the velocity up. I gassed it up, put up the velocity, and nothing happened. I took the gun apart, and the body was stuck to the valve because the valve had retained the pressure somehow. I pushed the on/off pin a bit and the gun valve cycled, which caused me to drop it, and the on/off assy came out, and i lost the small oring that belongs on top of the on/off assy, and grease was everywhere. I gassed the gun up without the small oring and oiled the on/off assy. The trigger got some pressure, but it wouldnt shoot. I took out the valve and left it alone until today. I planned on buying an oring kit to replace that oring, but instead, today i bought a ult kit. I took out the one oring that was in the on/off assy hole, and put in the ult. Same thing happened, the trigger didnt get any pressure. I don't wanna mess anything up now, so what should i do to make it work?


I pm'ed cphil asking for help. He told me to oil the ult and add 2 spacers. I did, when i screwed it back in it didnt tighten up too much, is it supposed to spin freely? I put it back in and the same thing happened, no pressure going to the trigger. This sucks

look in my sig... I made that procedure for new X valve owners. BTW you really really need to turn the velocity up, like a couple of turns. Dont be scared you shouldnt hurt the valve.

Did you put in the sear that came with the x valve?

[Major Ho]

I just dont think your setting it up right is all. On the other hand if you really hate it Ill buy it off ya

[PBCapo]

yea i used the sear that came with the x. gtrsi, how does that clip help me? lol, i'll try turning up the velocity more, but i dont think that will do anything if the trigger doesnt get any pressure to begin with

[PBCapo]

okay, i gassed it up, turned the velocity up a crapload, and after a while it suddenly started leaking down the barrel, a lot of gas came through

Hey, I got my x a few days ago, had same problem w/ no trig pressure. I attribiuted it to the lack of pressure in my tank (about 600 psi) but my rt had pressure on the trigger at that much psi. I'll go try boosting the velocity up a ton, see if that does anything for me.

Does the leaking stop when you pull the trigger and hold it on?

If so then the problem is the powertube oring (NOTE- this is assuming the same problems with the X valve have the same solution as for the Classic valve). I would send it in to AGD, they should fix it up for free if it wasn't working when you bought it new.

[The Deacon]

Nope, turning velocity up to full doesn't even cause a leak. Curious.

[PBCapo]

let me see hold on a sec..no it doesnt, the trigger still doesnt get any pressure, so pulling it doesnt do much of anything

TheDeacon - sorry, I probably should have specified, but I was asking PBCapo

Its a problem with the sear and trigger pin assembly, something about how you need to set it up. This happened in my X-valve'd mag after taking out and putting in the valve several times. Both times messing with the pin placing (I guess) fixed the problem.

[The Deacon]

grr, get this: the regulator won't unscrew from the valve. Period. What the heck is going on?

[The Deacon]

the lines don't match up on the reg and valve. It WILL NOT budge. The on/off assembly (ULT) was hard to get out too. What is going on here?

check your lvl10

if the spring is too stiff... you should tune it up.
