E-Mag studder leaks down barrel when aired up...

[NeoApollo]

Okay. I tired installing a level 10. No success. So I thought, "Oh well, I'll just put my level 7 back in, and play tomorrow anyway." Boy did I have a suprise. I replaced all the level 10 parts and put the level 7 stuff back on/in.

Well when I aired it up, everything was fine. I brought it to the chrono, I took it off safe, and the bolt just completely started going. It sounds like someone trying to shoot auto without enough pressure in their tank.

I'm completely sure I put -everything- from the level 7 back into the gun. I really need help with this. Thanks.

EDIT: I think I found the problem. I'm missing an o-ring that goes above the on/off valve. The smaller of the two that go there. Would that cause this?

Yes that will cause it. You need 2 orings for the on/off hole. Make sure they are in there..Let me know if you cant get it going.

Alright. well here's a related question. I lost the o-ring because the marker wouldn't shoot after I gassed it up. So I turned the tank on/off to off, and the gun was still pressured. I removed the bolt to release the pressure, but the on/off valve shot out of the bottom. Is it supposed to do this?

There can be residual pressure in the valve, even after you degass the bottle. In some cases, the on-off will be forced out. This is normal. You have to be careful when removing the valve.

Make sure to shoot all of the air out(as much as you can) then always pull the trigger back to push up the on/off pin...so you can get the valve out.

Ooo, awesome advice Tunaman. I wouldn't have made the connection to hold the trigger down.
