CO2 leaking through barrel

[hexer29]

Ok, i put on my new stabilizer and my macro line, and i put in my new turbo valve, and shockech bolt, i screwed the tank in and turned it on. CO2 was leaking through my barrel. IT is a lp setup, what should i do???

[TLplus84]

you cup seal might be bad, you have to change that..or your Co2 level might be low..

[A damn fool]

happened to me, i didnt screw the cup seal all the way onto the new ting that it conets to. Or u put in the valve the wrong way.

[hexer29]

i just put i new cup seal in and it was running at 500 psi, i didnt get to adjust it yet.

[hexer29]

how do u know which way it goes in, does the clear or black o ring go first

[hexer29]

i put the turbo valve the other way, it is running at 500 psi, so it isnt to low to run. Any suggestions????

[hexer29]

the air leak is not as bad but u can still hear it a little. I can not run the gun under 500 psi or it will not shoot right. When i turn it down to 400 it shoots and stays cocked, but it still kind of sputters. what can i do to get the psi lower, i drilled out the asa adapter, i have the turbo valve, the cup seal is brand new. And what maddman springs should i replace. Need help please.

[A damn fool]

I need to know the same thing, i want my pressure really low, but i dotn think it is, and iu wont know until i put a guage on. But how else can i get my pressure down???

....the larger hole of the valve goes toward the LPC...

same thing happened to me with my shutter...leaking at the cup seal...I was told that I had to seat the cupseal to the new valve....I shot paint til it stopped leaking...or slowed to almost no leak...and leave it under pressure this will seat the cupseal...


after that it stoped and works fine....I still ended up changing it to a lapco cup seal....it's alittle softer so it seals easier....

As for you not running low pressure....did you drill out your ASA......because the stock holes in it are to resrictive and you have a flow problem....drilling these larger fixed my recocking problem and got my pressure way down to 250 and lower....you should get a set of springs also...they will help a great deal also...

df do you have all aka internals a mighty max could help if you dont have one i am soon to get every aka part for my bruzier

[hexer29]

i cant get it any lower than 500. i drilled out the asa and have a high flowing bolt, the stabilizer is good so i dont have to worry about that, i want my psi between 200 and 300. I have the spring kit, so which springs should i use.

[ptflyer]

I used the light valve and striker spring that came in my set....I have the 32* set....but I would try the light ones that came in your set first....

[TLplus84]

don't expect to drop between 200-300. I put hours and hours of work for it to do taht...also polish your internals..

[hexer29]

what color spring in the maddman kit should i use, there are three, the one to get the higher or lower velocity? what is the lowest u think i can go?

[hexer29]

i got all of the leaking stopped, the o rings were damaged on my new turbo valve. I cant go below 450 psi, is that good or should i try to go lower?

[TLplus84]

the point of low pressure isn't to go as low as you can..the point is to go to a low psi and still get your gun to shoot 100%. If 450 is what your gun goes to, then 450 it is...if you want to get it lower, get a new low perssure chamber or drill out your vertical adapter.

[hexer29]

will polishing my interals lower it a litte?

[TLplus84]

yeah it helps alot. go to my trigger job thread..it has instructions on how to do it.
