Pissed about leakage on my sto!!!

[paintballer56]

ok i gas my gun up, its a sto, the balls go 2 feet and fall to ground, i put my velocity up, the go 6 feet then fall to ground, i put up the veloctiy up a lot and it works great, then, after i fire some round, and go to take off my tank, then when i put my tank back on and secure the cp on\off valve so it seals, the ergo reg, starts leaking, the more i turn the on\off, im like what the hell

any suggestions??

well.....to start ...I don't know what bolt you have ....but is it in upsidedown....which would have given you the first problem....

second...when you say you turned up the velocity.....did you trun it up with the rear adjustment nut...(behind the cocking rod)......or did you turn up your pressure on the reg....if so.....you might be "leaking" out of the relief ...because you have the pressure set to high.....try turning it down....

just some things to look at

I think he's been setting his velocity through the reg...
paintballer56, I really wish I could help you, but I don't understand your gibberish. :/

my Black Magic leaked from the 3-way the first time i used it... you just have to tinker with the timing and it fixes it... I didn't know what the hell I was doing (becaus this is my first autococker) but I adjusted somthing right because it doens't leak now :P Most cocker come untimed so just bring it to a proshop if u dont want to risk messing it up

[paintballer56]

on the ergo reg, i just lowered the presure all the way down, and it still leaks in a corner of the bottom of the ergo,, need help

Have you tried putting oil in your asa and dry firing.
Also do you have a gauge so you can put it back to the right operating pressure :rolleyes:

Paintballer56 take out your cocking rod and and stick a 3/6 allan wrench into the hole where the cocking rod was. The turn the wrench clockwise 1 spin. If your reg is leaking where you adjust the velocity, ungas the gun, take the velocity adjusting screw out and wrap some teflon tape around the threads. And btw. The reg velocity adjusting will only change the velocity a little. The big defference in velocity change will come from adjusting the back.

[paintballer56]

thanks sweetkid, but its a pain in tha *** to adjust it from the back, this is what i think happened, i shot my sto the ball two feet, turned it up, did the same for a litttle while, then the pressure got to high and i broke a seal, that i cant fix w\o help, so i got to take it in unless somene tells me how

[ptflyer]

sounds like you turned your regulator up to high...and damaged the o-ring inside....you will need to replace it....that is my best guess.....and thats what I would do...but you might want to see if you can get the replacement parts first.....or if it's still under warranty.....;) ;)

just to let you know the warrenty is good for 10 days, you have to mail it in within TEN days.;)

[Landon]
