Send me 1200 bucks and I will.


Hey Jonesie, I'll definately find you and give that battery a try. Being as mine is not the only one doing this, I don't think it's the battery, but I have to cover all the bases.

When I had my battery replaced it was $60, thanks for all the concern on the price though.

Back to the situation at hand.

[Jonesie]

No problem, man. I'll also bring my multimeter so we can check the voltage and resistance... mmm... fun with electricity!

[pito189]

Excellent. Hopefully I can get this thing working. I prefer to play a tournament, and be able to trust my gun.


You going to be there on Saturday?

[RenagadeOfFunk]

1200 for a flawful x...

If you haven't got it up and running I would suggest trying this.

Take the valve out of the gun. Remove the On/Off assembly from the valve. Remove the Yellowish/Clear O-ring and quad oring from the bottom of the hole in the valve. Drop about 3 drops of oil in there. Place the orings back into position. Use a bic inkpen cap to push the orings to the bottom, so that they are flat. Take the onoff pin out of the on/off assembly. Oil the pin..the skinner section and the fat top section. Place it back into the on off assembly. Move the pin up and down a bit to work in the lube. Place the on/off back into the valve. Assemble and gas it up.

The reason I tell you this is because I had the exact same symptoms with my xmag. It wouldn't fire in emode unless I clicked it over to manual and pulled the trigger, then it would fire a few and stop once again. Upon doing that very procedure, The problem went away. It recently came back, in which I repeated the procedure and it is now gone once again.

Yeah, I'll be up there sometime between 2 and 4 until whenever. I don't live too far away, so it's not a huge commute. However, I have to help my girlfriend's sorority out with some philanthropy stuff that morning, so I'm not quite sure what time I'll actually be able to get there.

I'll be sure to grab my multimeter, batteries, and toolkit when I head up there though. See what we can do to it the day BEFORE the tournament rather than the day OF the tournament!

Please let us know how your making out w/ the current 'fixes',I'm curious to see how it turns out.

I "think" I know where the prob is but it's not easy to explain.It seems to have worked on 2 others so far but I'm still not sure if it's a definate 'fix'.I'm also not sure if I should try and explain it here just yet.

Intersting though.I do believe it is an Xmag issue and /gasp/ a tolerance problem.

Hope it works out for you,keep us posted.

Thanks,
Jay.

Pito, as I said before, it could be a number of things, Let Jonesie use his stuff to check the plunger rod length, battery for 20-22v and the solenoid for 2.6-3.0 Ohms. If he has a middle or stock spring, ask him if you can use that to try out if you dont find yours, and remember to keep your input above 850.

If Jonesie can't get it running for you, send it to me and I will make it sing for you, I wont even charge you considering your situation.

[pito189]

Thanks everyone for the help, hopefully Jonesie and I can get it fixed on Saturday.


RenagadeOfFunkRTPcf you asked.

Sounds like a plan! I would prefer to do the work indoors. Grass has a way of hiding the screws I'm gonna drop!

I do have extra springs, maybe just the shortest, but enought to try to get it working.

I sure hope you get it working by Ultimate Madness or else our team name will take on a whole new meaning!

I have been having the exact same problems with my Emag. I'm 90% sure its a battery / charger problem though, as my battery can't hold a charge. I sent in my Emag and charger to AGD to have them inspect it last week. I should be getting it back sometime this week.

[pito189]

Doobie hopefully it will. If not, I might have to talk Trina into letting me play with the purple and black beauty.

young7786 let me know what the conclusion of that is.
