Spyder Velocity Problem

[RedWeenie]

Hey i have a spyder imagine and I have been haveing some problems with getting my velocity up to the right speed. Lately the overall velocity has dropped to about 230-250 fps and i can't get it any higher... I have a spring kit and i have the "highest" spring in the gun and the velocity adjuster is all the way in. Any ideas what would be the problem or any ways I can get my velocity back up to what its supposed to be?

P.S. Im running compressed air.

Thanks.

check that little nob on the the end of the striker for excessive wear... also check to see if the following are broken.. : striker o-ring, bolt o-rings, cup seal... sometimes an oring will split and will cause the striker or bolt to drag on the walls of the body. causing low velocity....

You can also lighten your valve spring.

A thorough clean and lube can sometimes work wonders.

yeah, a lighter valve spring should fix it.

i use the light valve spring and medium main spring in my spyder without any problems.
although, my spyder's only running on about 375 psi.
