Leaking out the bottom hole???????????????

[Gibb...EH!!!]

Ok, I bought this Mag a while ago and since my local field has been shut down I have not been able to test it. So Sunday was the first time that the field was open so I went to go play.
I oiled and gassed it up and there was a leak in the middle hole on the bottom of gun next to field strip screw...so I bought a parts kit replaced ALL the o-rings just in case.
Still leaked...so I replaced all the O-rings in the regulator body..still leaked.
Bought another parts kit and replaced all the O-RINGS again.....STILL leaking?????

I am so HOT right now I could toss this thing in traffic.

I watched video and it does not tell you what to do when air is leaking out the bottom middle hole.

AGD...ANYBODY>>>HELP!!!

So I take it you have replaced every single o-ring in the gun correct? If anything, it's the on/off bottom teflon o-ring. How about the reg. seat? Is that in the right way and in good condition? Gas the gun up, pull and hold the trigger. Does it leak? One thing you can do to determine the exact location of the leak is to gas up the gun and dunk it into a bucket of water. Watch where the bubbles come from and then that's where your leak is coming from.

Sounds like you need to screw the regulator nut in. I think maybe the reg. piston is out past the hole drilled in the reg. body for oil. Did you try and shoot your gun at all? Also, make absolutely sure the reg. seat is in working order, and is put in the right way. Last of all, check the o-ring on the reg. piston. let me know if this helped.

BlackVCG...I have replaced all o-rings twice..Reg seat is in right way fits tight will not fall off and is new...gas gun pull and hold trigger no leak...
I will dunk it in water and let you know

THANKS
GIBB....still looking

[Gibb...EH!!!]

AGD Well I dunked it and It is leaking out the hole that is closest to the field strip screw...BAD

Have you removed the regulator piston? There is an o-ring on the piston that requires maintenance. (it's under the velocity adjuster)

[Gibb...EH!!!]

Yes I removed the regulator piston and replaced the O-ring twice now....all the o-rings are good and are clean and lubed

If there's no leak when you hold the trigger back then the problem is in the on/off valve. Pull out the on/off assembly. Two o-rings should be at the bottom. Urethane and white teflon. Then the white teflon o-ring in the on/off bottom piece. and the urethane o-ring on the outside. Provided ALL of these o-rings are brand new, it sounds like something is out of alignment. Call AGD and tell them your problem and if they can't fix it over the phone then send it in. There's only so much you can do over a forum when you can't see the gun for yourself.

if it stops when you pull the trigger, that means it is in the on off bottom, or you have a cracked power tube. Are you positive you assembled the on off right, and that you have the lower teflon o-ring in place? Is your on off pin scratched or bent or obviously screwed up? If not, then maybe the hole was drilled a little out of round or something. This seems like a very unusual problem, like maybe a serious construction flaw. You probably need to send it to agd or your local shop.

It sounds to me like he's saying its leaking threw the "oil hole" on the bottom of the
valve assembly. I don't understand how it could be in the on/off assembly.(?)

[BlackVCG]

There is no way you can tell that it's coming from that hole when the gun is all assembled. Sure it might sound like it's coming from that general area, but I've had people say that their gun was "leaking from the trigger" (whatever that means) when it's actually a powertube leak. If replacing o-rings doesn't fix the problem and you can't seem to figure it out, then send it to AGD and it will come back working.

Well,he did say he held the trigger,and it stoped right?Would that mean the power tube?
He said he replaiced all the o-rings,but no one told him to put in a diffrent p/t spacer.
Mr.Kaye said,leaks come from three areas.

1.leaking out the back,and eratic fps=reg seat/spring or reg nut/piston

2.leaking in the middle.On/off valve.
Hold the trigger,still leaks? yes=on/off

3.leaking down the barrel.Power tube spacer/o-ring/base..The best way to tell if you have a p/t crack..Put in the smallest spacer.If the base is cracked,it will still leak with the shortest spacer,wich should not have any leaking down the barrel..What spacer do you have? Mabey the preveious own had a bolt stick prob and put in a a longer spacer,you should try a smaller spacer.hope it helped

Well I sent my MAG into AGD....and it was leaking out the middle hole on the rail of the gun next to the field strip screw.

Well it was my Hurricane valve it was shot to hell????
All that I have to say is AGD's service was above and beyond my expectations and I want to thank Jon Comprado at AGD for all his help
My mag is shooting great now!!!
THANK YOU!!!!
