BKO Problem Again

[pbk09]

Argh my bko is being stupid again(or maybe i am :( ) When i turn the air on, the gauge goes up to around 200 then theres a leak and the gauge drops back down to zero. No matter when i pull the trigger, right when the gauge reads 200 or when it reads 0, the gun will not shoot at all, theres only the click of the solenoid. The leak is coming from the grip to lpr area, and if i push the bolt foward while its leaking the leak will come out of the barrel. Someone please help me ASAP, im lookin to play with it tommorow. Thanks a lot.

sounds alot like what happend to my gun, exsept i put my hpr on 200 and it leaked and my velocity was nada, then i turned my hpr up and my lpr or whatever it was leaked even more but then it shot,i took it back to the shop i got it from and they sent it back off to icd. yours isn't an unmilled one is it?

Mines 2k3, and the last time i played, some guy sweetspot the regs so i have no idea what the problem could be. I need help ASAP though, im planning on playing tommorow:(

sounds like you may be having an issue with your internal hose, the higher the pressure it may be comming loose enough that air is escaping, but if im thinking right (it is a saturday night) the guage shouldnt drop though. I would take your trigger frame off CAREFULLY so you dont rip any wiring and check the blue hose that runs from the ASA block to the ram. When you take the trigger frame off if thats not the issue atleast you will be able to figure out exactly where the leak is comming from. If it is the hose just unhook it with pliers cut a small amount off and reattach it.

just take the 4 outside screws off that way the tray and trigger frame come off together that was you can get access to most anything

Yeah, i had that problem before, i didnt think of it :(

So i cut the hose and everything, reattached it, and even put duct tape around the gasket thing that connects the hose. Now when i air it up, the pressure goes at 200, dosnt go down, but there is a smaller leak around the same place which you cant really hear except if you put your ear directly to the gun. But it still only gives me the click of the solenoid and no sign of cycling. If i remeber correctly when i had this problem before air was at least getting to the gun and it would cycle, it just had a nasty leak, i could be wrong there though.

Update- Now i took the tray off the gun and it sounds like the leak is coming from the back around the solenoid. The leak is very small and not noticeable unless you put your ear up to the gun. Any help at all would be appreciated.

if you are still using the stock regs i know there used to be an issue where the LPR wouldnt always want to work. You would basically need to reset it when you wanted to use it. Back your LPR all the way out flush with the body then slowly turn it in while pulling the trigger every now and then and see if it begins to cycle. If that works then keep turning it in til the noid leaks then back out a 1/4 turn, crono with your HPR after that

Ive been told i have a blown solenoid :( I hope its covered under the waranty, ill go check it out. Thanks anyways thoguh.

Try to tighten the solenoid to the ram, there is to tiny screws that somtimes come loose,had same problem this took care of it.

Try resetting the LPRE as suggested. If the pressure gets too high they shut themselves off. Back out the LPR adjustment screw and then start bring LPR pressure up.
