Response Trigger Intallation

[yakitori]

I am installing the RT and it is easy. I thought it would be difficult to punch the hole out, but as agent orange pointed out, as well as instructions, the place where the hole is supposed to go is easy to punch. It isnt noticable from the outside, but after taking it apart it is obvious. I just used a screw driver and hammer.

here is a link to the instructions for the 98C and others.

Cool... Glad you got it working right...
But I guess my question is... why? ;)

I recieved the response trigger kit in the mail today and installed it right away. First off, the kit comes with everything you need, including loctite. There is nothing you need to purchase in addition to the kit. Followed the instructions and everything went smooth. The only tips I can give in addition to the instructions is to lubricate the new powertube with paintball gun oil before putting it in and use care when removing the valve from the old power tube (dont use something that will scratch it up. Also, I cannot stress how important it is not to overtighten as you will strip the valve threads on the gas line and valve screws.

After installing, I tinkered with the flow adjuster to find the sweet spot. I have not gotten it adjusted where I would like it yet. I think my CO2 tank is low too. I will try it again with a full tank and hopefully it will be better.

It does use gas fast, and I plan on getting an antisiphon installed to help with pulling liquid in.

Yeah for the Rt you really should get anti siphon and\or reg\xchamber. If you cant use nitro or dont want to.
