ReTro valve dying????

[Riot[Z-Grip]]

Ok, I got my retro valve 1.5-2 weeks ago used, and finally got to play with it on Sunday.... Or I would have if it worked. These are the problems I'm having with it. Everytime I gas up, one of three things happens (different almost every time):
[list=1][*]Leaks out the back, increasing in intensity as I screw the tank in more.[*]Leaks out the barrel.[*]Leaks out the hole next to the seam.[/list=1]

I have run one parts kit throught the gun already. This weekend I'm gonna try another and a different PT spacer (a .215 as opposed to the .225 it has now). I run a preset Crossfire 68ci 3000psi (about 800-850psi input).

I just want people's opinions on how to fix this before I send it in to AGD, if it can be fixed by me. Thanks.

You need to send a quick, high pressure burst of air to the valve to get it seal. Using an on/off cradle or pro-connect will help this. Make sure the valve is well oiled. Also, hold the bolt back with a squeggee when you're gassing it up and that should get the bolt to stay sealed and keep it from leaking down the barrel.

can you just hold down the trigger when you gas it up?
