X Valve Leaking

[Thermus]

I air it up, its fine. I pull the trigger once, it shoots, and then leaks like crazy. Any suggestions?

Remove a shim. If that doesn't work, go down one carrier size.

Sorry, heh, never used a Level 10 before, so I need leighman's terms


Thanks for the reply.

Now its just leaking down the barrel like crazy. Turning down the velocity makes it leak less, turning it up makes it leak a tone more. Any other suggestions?

ok heres what i do start with #2 shim(2 lines on the carrier w/o a dot) and 2 shims keep going down carrier sizes untill it stops leaking(note: leave the 2 shims in) and then once you find a carrier that won't leak try and go up 1 carrier and remove shims. try that.
