    The ASA I guess is cross threaded. I screwed in my tank and right before the last turn to tighten the tank, it started to leak from the ASA. Pulled the tank, and found the O-ring on the air valve was sliced up. Put a new o-ring on and same thing happen. Switched out the ASA from my other Mag and solved that issue. I just need to buy a new ASA.

    The second issue is that from time time and the best I can descibe it, the valve will not recharge. The trigger will not reset, it will hang up for a second or two and you hear a little air leak.

    Any advice or should I post this to the tect forum? I am thinking O-ring kit.
    I'd say verify your on/off o-rings and give it some oil. That's where I'd start from.

      Oil the level 10 powertube and carrier o ring. That's most likely it

          Fiddle with your field strip screw. You would be amazed at the issues having it too light or too tight can cause.

            Should I do it hand tight or hand tight then a 1/2 turn with the allen key?

              Hand tight and just snug with a allen works for me. But every one is different.

                Seems to vary from marker to marker. I have one that when the marker is not aired up, the valve actually wobbles a bit. Another one, I have to do a 1/4 turn or so. Do it finger tight and air the marker up. If it is resetting and cycling fine, leave it. If it isn't resetting, try tightening a little until it resets. You may have to loosen it.

                  I finally got the chance to disassemble the valve, clean and oiled it up.
                  I think it fixed the problem. Walked the trigger and had no issues.
