hey i need to take the regulaor off cuz my 3way shaft is being stubborn and will not come out so in order to take my 3way off i have to take my regulator off, so if i do this will it mess my timing up on the gun? and do i just unscrew the reg

just take off the hose and unscrew it from the block.....it shouldn't do anything to your timing...

screwing with your three way might.....

but anyway....you might have to take off the nipple on the front reg to get it off but thats not a big deal....only one thing-I suggest you use a scocket wrench to take the nipple off.....only because some times they are a bit stubbern and if you use plyers or somthing like that you might just break it off and leave half inside the reg...(big problems then)....

well if you changed the shaft on the three way instead of just the o-rings......you will probably have to re time your marker.....sounds like your three way is not moving far enough foward to activate the ram to close the bolt.....

of course this is just a guess with what little info you gave

i ended up just cleaning out my 3way, the shaft was fine it was just it needed some oil and some cleaning when i looked into it, but when i gassed the gun up, it would just act like a blow back gun, it would not return to the closed bolt position.

do you have the hoses on the three way in the right possition....the one closest to the trigger frame to the front of the ram.....middle one to the front reg...the one farthest from the trigger frame to the back of the ram....(closest to the front block


if all that is right....and your trigger isn't sticking.....try timing your marker from step one...and take it from there.....
