I recently bought an old style imp, which wasn't working (so i got it real cheap) and was told it just needed a new board and wires resoldered to the solenoid. Well, while those were needed, another problem i found is tons of leaks.
Some of these leaks i fixed myself, or at least lessened, but there are a few others which are confusing me.
For now, because its somewhat hard to tell where a few are coming from without fixing others first, i will ask about 2 that are the most annoying:
1. the inline ASA is leaking from the very top (where it connects to the body of the gun). I have replaced the o-ring (twice) and that hasn't done anything. Likewise I have used sealant on the threads and that hasn't worked. Its only a slight leak, but still something I would like to get solved.
2. The second leak is the main one. The entire solenoid chamber (bottom right of valve chamber) is leaking. It leaks from both plugs and from that itty bitty screw in about the center of the body.
- I never touched that itty bitty screw but it just started leaking all of a sudden one day
- When i got the gun there was a tapeworm nipple (not a working tapeworm, no tube) in the front port, but because of the leak i decided to remove it and replace it with the original cap.
Any help on these leaks would be greatly appreciated, and I hope i gave all the information needed, but if not I will be checking up on this a lot and hopefully I can answer any confusion or questions with these.
Thanks
