    Crazy shoot down problem.....

    Alright, after a 4 year break, my son and I have started playin again. My problem is this. I have an AutoMag with a lvl 7 valve, all stock. I have a Boo-Yaah (yeah I know should have gotten the centerflag) lcd on it. I only have it set for 10bps. In burst mode the 1st and 2nd shot are fine but 3 and 4 are barely going 100fps. SERIOUS shoot down.....help please.
    Thanks in advance Pete
    PS. I've put a complete parts kit in it and run air.

    Well, this may be slightly obvious, but here goes.

    I'd start by looking at your HPA set-up, if you have an adjustable tank, try increasing the out-put pressure, or if you have a screw in see if you can borrow someone else's and see if you have similar problems.

    If changing air doesn't help then check your gas lines to obstructions or just disconnect them and blow them out with some compressed air. Then take your valve (on/off, everything) apart, give everything a detail cleaning with rubbing alcohol:water (1:1) then let everything dry. Use Autolube (or what ever gun oil you prefer, I like KC myself) and give everything a nice coat of oil as you assemble your valve again.

    Gas-up and see what's cookin' If there's still a problem I'd look at how old the rebuild kit was, I'd also see if the problem persists with CO2 (I know I know, bad).

    The last thing I'd look at is the Boo-Yah, there's a chances that the battery in it is going south and isn't providing enough Wattage to the 'noid.

    Hope this helps.

      Are you using the on/off assembly that came with the BooYaah frame, if so then that's where you're getting the shoot down from, I had the same problems with the same setup in my old mag.

        Kevdupuis,
        How did you remidy the problem? Did you go back to the factory on/off assemby? I haven't tried that, maybe I'll give it a try tomarrow, thanks for the advice.

          Some people have had luck using the ULE trigger assy though it can be touchy to set up in the classic valve. I know Dennis Ashley at Centerflag loved what it did for his frame on mags, though I just removed my frame and on/off and have shot mech mags since.

            useing the stock on/off will wear out the noid faster and wear down your battery faster. so im going to again suggest, a ULT and get new name brand batteries, yes there is a differance,
