leaking down the barrel, couldnt find help in search

[syl58]

lvl 10 leaks down barrel, but if i hold the trigger down, it does not leak, tried all the power tube carriers.

on a different carrier, it didnt leak, but if you short stroked, it would not recock and then it had to be pushed back with a squeegee.


please help, ill try looking through the search AGAIN.
thanks

What spring are you using?

[syl58]

the longest silver one.

however i messed with it and threw in an extra shim and replaced the carrier and it seemed to work better.

however, it started doing it again ~~~1000 psi

is that due to the lower pressure or is it still a tuning issue?

You might want to start fresh with a different o-ring. Don't use the longer springs to tune. Start with the gold spring, no shims, and a carrier that fits snug on the bolt. Oil the heck out of it!!
