    Mystery o-ring

    Hey, I just installed my level 10. It took a little longer than I thought it would, but then again I'm not the most mechanically inclined person either. Anyway, I finally got it firing, but after about 20 shots it stopped. I thought it looked as if it had gotten stuck due to friction or something. I then took it apart and noticed a broken o-ring in between the new power tube tip and the shims I put in. I removed the mystery o-ring but couldn't figure out where it came from. So, I reassembled my Emag and it now seems to be working fine although I have yet to put any paint through it. The o-ring was about the same diameter of the new carriers. Any ideas? Am I gonna have a serious problem soon?

    Perhaps it was the powertube o-ring, or the carrier o-ring. Anyways i don't know anything about it but heres a link to a picture of the level 10 components if that helps.

      Most likely it was a chopped powertube o-ring that had been sitting in the valve chamber.
