Leak question

[Eric Cartman]

I've got a very small leak that only happens when the trigger is pulled and then held after the gun has fired. If I begin to very slowly ease up my finger pressure to release the trigger, the leak increases and then stops when the trigger is completely released.

My setup is as follows:
X valve
LX using single dot carrier & 3 LX shims
ULT using 5 ULT shims and 1 LX shims
stock AM rail
AGD Intelliframe

Any ideas?

I don't know if this will really help, but I would think that the problem lies in the on/off assembly, or possibly the powertube.

I have no idea what the actual problem is, but I would check the on/off o-rings (specifically the teflons, which can cause similar problems). If that doesn't help, look at the powertube o-ring.

Not positive, but my money is on there being a problem with the innermost teflon o-ring (small, hard white ones)in the on/off.

Thanks TheLaxPlayer. I took everything apart and lubed the hell out of it and the leak seems to have stopped for now. All of the O rings in the on/off seemed to be OK. I'll be playing on Sunday and I'll see if it comes back.

Now's the time I'd make a wisecrack about your hockey team, but we lost again last night, so I'll just keep my mouth shut fo now.

No problem, hope the leak is gone for good.
