    Help with Pneumag leaks in the uppers

    I recently recieved a pneumag, Im not new to mags but Its been awhile since Ive worked on one.

    Here are the spes- Pneumatic intelliframe, retro valve w/ ULT and LVL-x, ule body, omega rail.

    I am getting a serious leak from valvle or under body. I gassed up the frame itself and it performed fine. I also think the leak changes when I adjust rear velocity. Any other things I can to narrow the leak? Any help/ideas are apreciated. Thanks

    Could it be I need to retune lvlx, or new oring kit for valve?

    It sounds like o rings in the valve to me. Does the leak change if you push in on the bolt or pull the trigger slightly? Did you oil the valve?
    ......You know you want one!!

        I pushed on the bolt when aired up- it didnt move but no change.

        Do replacement o-ring come with ULT kit?

            Find where the leak is coming from first. Then we can diagnose the problem.
            Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

                Just use your ear. Put the gun to your ear and listen. If you still can't determine, then put it under water and see where the bubbles come out.

                      It sounds like its comeing from the front of the valve. I believe a little comes out bewteen body and rail and sounds like some is coming down barrel.

                        powertube o-ring

                        im no expert but if it's from the front of the x-valve it can be a power tube o-ring. You can order these from ASD's website or i can send you a few if we trade. lmk?

                            Sounds like a level 10 tuning issue. Remove the shims first and try that. If that doesn't work, go to the next smaller carrier using the same oring.
