Automag leaking air

[Myzek]

Having exact same problem. When I hold trigger in the air stops but when released air comes from the barrel... Tried I few things then ran out of air..

So i finally got the money to get the spacer kit. I replaced the 220 with the shorter 215, and i still get a leak down the barrel. I ordered a new sear and haven't installed it yet. I just need someone to tell me if i'm going in the right direction. WTF?!?!?

are you sure you dont have a level 10 bolt?? take your bolt out and if it has a hole in the middle part. the part that goes into the power tube. you have a level 10 bolt and you need the level 10 spacers. the one with the o ring on it along with some shims that go on top of that.

You might have a Lev10. One easy to check would be to look at the power tube tip. If it has a slot going through the center then you have a lev 7. If it doesnt and looks like a nut with a whole in the center then you have the lev 10. Something you might want to check if you have the lev 10 is check the backing washer. Make sure that you have yours or it isnt missing. I had a similar problem and turns out that I was missing the backing washer. I will include a link to a picture that you can reference to.

No, my powertube tip has the slotted tip and looks nothing like the diagram. I just put in the new sear for the hell of it and none of the spacers work to fix the leak still. The only thing i haven't done is been able to take apart that piece that you take apart right after the powertube o-ring where it goes to the larger metal cylinder. Tom Kayne does it in the videos but mine won't come off. It's supposed to have some sort of spring and o'ring or something in there.

It's called the air chamber
I just realized that i can unscrew the front of it slightly and the leaking gets worse, but all the way tight does not seal it and I can't get it all the way off.

Help!

You mean the front and back half of the valve or do you mean the powertube unscrewing off the front of the chamber. The front does not come off the valve. If it does then you need to remove it, clean it and apply some loctite and put it back together. Its not meant to come off.
