BKO problem

[tippmannweekend]

when i gas up i set my HPR to 210-225 psi and i screw my LPR till it starts hisiing and then screw it out a 1/4 turn, shoot and the ball doesn't even leave the barrel, so i screw the LPR in till it leaks sum, shoot better, and then i screw it in more and it is very noticable but shoots nice, then i realize that it's not leaking from the lpr but inside my gun or grip fram, i have a tourney on the 27th so is you guy could help me i only have 4 good days left and i'm not very confident in taking it apart

i have a 2k4 unmilled bko, only shot a little less than a case threw it with the problem above but i'm starting to get concerned

update- i just gass it up agian and i am sure it's from inside the gun so i checked out the manuel it says over pressuring, so i got it down to where the leak stoped and the gun stoped cycling, i just got this gun not too long ago please sombody help!!!!!!!:(

I know my bko worked fine as low as 200 (not efficient tho), but i would recomend you step up your HPR to 225-250psi, which should let you work with your LPR more, plus, better efficiency. You will want to try and find a chrono, just so you know what your gun is doing.

hmm im pretty sure the leaking is coming from the solenoid inside the grip frame. It's made to hiss ( let out air ) when the pressure gets to high to keep from damaging it.

p.s. impya or anybody else here will know what to do but i don't :(

Tighten the selenoid. Thats what happened with my new bko I sent it in and the thing that came back said
Loose noid tightened it and the regulator seal. So just tighten it hard because there known to wobble out.

This happened to me too, so I figured it out and fixed by tightening the screws up. It worked fine at my house, I even shot like 15 balls and they all shot hard and straight. Then I get to the field and I had to turn my LPR until it hissed for it to shoot hard. Is there anyway to get this to stay tight or is it something else?

[tippmannweekend]

i took it to my local shop and he said he'll fix it for free (i bought it from him so i get a free fix warenty for life, just hope he'll be done by friday, i have a tourney on sat!!!!!!
