    x valve recharge

    Ok i have an X Valve with a ULT trigger and LX installed. i havent finished tuning either of them yet, but after firing the gun i have noticed that the recharge is really bad! What can i do to improve this. Im hoping that maybe once everything is tuned it will work better. But then again it doesnt seem, to me, that any tuning you do to either the LX or the ULT will improve the recharge rate....unless im missing something. also, what can i intall to monitor the pressure going through my gun and even better what will let me adjust it? Thanks

    Please explain "recharge rate" are there any funny noises etc. list your tank etc to eliminate the common problems

      I well right now its doing the typical "chuff" and then it will "hiss".then it will fire then repeat the cycle.(when i pull the trigger rapidly or try to feather it) i have a 45/3000.

      i have no way of knowing how much pressure is running through my gun. thats why i asked about how to do that.

          switch out the ULT and see if it goes away. this will eliminate the "tune the ULT posts you'll get. anyway my first suggestion.

            I would but i dont have another one. I think i got it tuned pretty well. I got the o ring carrier in and it doesnt leak except if i put a slight pressure on the trigger. when i fire it goes away. i put in 2 shims and the LX is working pretty well. now im gonna mess with the ULT. The LX guide was very helpful.


            Unfortunately my macro line popped today. i think the different colors are different thicknesses? i have a black one on the top and the red one on the bottom(the one that popped). maybe ill try to get the bottom one in black or go with a metal one. do they make metal lines in 2" lengths?

            Thanks for your input!

              If you want really good macroline, contact Tunaman. He'll hook you up with great stuff.
