Valve Stick

[trimegatron]

Hey guys, I still haven't got my marker working properly from the factory! I have had all kinds of bolt stick remedy's but haven't found a long term solution. When I'm out my first shot is fine, then there is a long delay before the marker will fire the next time I pull the trigger. I hear a suction sound and then the marker might/ might not reset to be fired again. Everything is thorougly (if by now not overly lubricated). Many times I have to pull my hopper off and reset the bolt with my finger. I'm not sure which carrier I'm using but there are two shims in the valve. I'm using two ULE shims in the trigger. Often when I'm pulling the marker apart to lubricate the parts the trigger is stuck in the body and has to be reset so I can remove the valve from the body. Also, the ULE trigger has a lot of slop in it. I though when I first received it that it screwed down tight against the shims...now it doesn't - could this be my problem?

Thanks for your help, trimega

tighted your field strip screw with an allen wrench. snug it up, but dont tighten it realllly hard. tell us if that doesnt work

[trimegatron]

yeah I tried too

Remove all shims from the powertube. Now increase the carrier size. Use the largest one that does not leak. Once that is done, setup the ULT.

Thanks, I'll do that tonight. I called Jason at AGD who also mentioned changing the spring to the shorter one. I'll tinker with it tonight. and post later on

you dont happen to have the RT on off do ya?

[trimegatron]

I wish! I'm regretting now that I didn't get it instead. I've read it's easier to set the stock one up to bounce also.

Yes it is i was just wondering because if ya did it would be easier to set everything up acordingly if you removed the ULT and just worked with the lvl 10 first and then after getting that working the way it should you could tune the ult. But as fast as the lvl 10 gose just try your carriers till you find the biggest one that dosent leak in your gun. After that try the bolt with the red spring and and see how the bolt resets if you like it leave it like that if not start adding shims till you get the desired setting.
