STS PROBLEM!!!! HELP!

[Joel Timberlake]

It won't stop leaking! I put Co2 is 5 times, and it leaks in the different spot EVERYTIME!!!!!! WHAT DO I DO!

[Mad Ogre]

What you can do is take it apart and while putting it back together again clean, examine and oil every component... Methodically, slowly, and precisly steps A through Z, one at a time. Any joint, O-ring, valve or seal that you find questionable - replace it.

I am not going to pay for parts, or even put it together. I am not too good at doing things like that. I think I am going to send it back, get my money, and get a TL Plus.

[adVanCedSh0t] Dude, stop being such a wuss. [adVanCedSh0t/]
Shaddup. Maybe I don't want to mess up a gun that I just got last week.

[adVanCedSh0t]

ya but thats nice to know that im a wuss i have field stripped my whole gun. and im not afriad to take it apart. is that wuss?? a wuss is what yo uare being. just take the screws out carefully and have a box or something around your gun and nothing cna go wrong. By the WAy i took my gun fully apart the first day i got it. SO i know when i go to the field and something goes wrong i can take it apart. Plus if you got your manual for your STS then if something does go wrong (which i dout could actually happen) yo ugot the boo kto help you. In it you can find all the stuff about the gun. It shows diagrams of hte whole gun every single screw. So dont be a wuss and take it apart and oil it. If you dont thats pretty sad.CAuse piranhas are the easiest to take apart. Good Luck!

[Witt]

Maybe he doesnt want to and I think you should respect his decision and stop wasting your time because he doesnt care.

[Joel Timberlake]

Shot, I have field stripped my gun many, many times. I just don't want to go removing everything and not being able to put it back together. And I would like it if you didn't call me a wuss...

[adVanCedSh0t]

i wasn't waisting my time it only took about a minute of my time to write that. ya ok i wont call you a wuss. Howa about when this happened to me. I took out the bolt and oiled that the sear, and the bottomline. Tehn put your tank back in and dry fire it a couple shots. \and if that dont work then send it back or take it some place to have someone look at it.

Me, a newbie? I think not. Listen, I just didn't want to take everything apart and loose a piece like I did to my Tippmann. I've only had the gun for a week, so I didn't want to screw it up. I have field stripped my gun A LOT and cleaned it. I do it after everytime I get done using it. So just shut your mouth. I am no damn newbie. Incube, you are probably the newbie here, just trying to sound all cool.

[Witt]

Incube. Maybe you should just shut up and bow down to Timberlake because I think he owns your ***. J/k..Why do people fight...We want to help each other!

[Joel Timberlake]

I agree with Witt, but Incube shouldn't just jump on my case. People like him make me mad.

[Witt]

YEAH..I definately agree with you Timberlake, WHY IS INCUBE BEING so stupid?

[Skelo]

My STS leaked at the Ram Air Chamber so I unscrewed it and took the piston and the screw out oiled the o-ring put it back together, no problems after doing that.

Even if Joel is a newbie...so what? It isn't your responsibility or place to pick on him for having less experience. I understand his fear of ruining a 200 investment. Some people don't feel the need to take the chance of breaking their new gun. If he doesn't have the experience to fix it, he is doing the wise thing not attempting to fix things he doesn't know how to fix, and possibly voiding his warranty.
People like you piss me off more than any newbie I have ever met. You scare people away from the sport! People new to the sport need help and support, not some Ahole degrading them. Remember, to someone you could be considered a newbie.
Get over yourself, and try to help people, not hinder them in their attempts to learn. I have been playing for 10 years now, and I learn something new every time I go to the field, sometimes from newbies who don't have the limitations on their thoughts that someone with experience has.

Dman, I thank you for backing me up. I once tried to clean my model 98. I opened it up, and EVERYTHING flung out. Lucky, I found everything and fixed it. It's not like I won't clean it, I just don't want to go into everything.

P.S - I am NO newbie.

[Dman]

I wasn't saying that you were.:) It was more of a statement of who cares. I still consider myself a newbie sometimes, and I started playing in 1991 with a NSG Splatmaster...the first Wal-Mart gun. There are people that I know who have been playing since the mid 80s..to them I am a newbie, and always will be. Especially when it comes to owning the cocker I just bought. I feel like an idiot sometimes with it.
I know the feeling I forgot to make damn sure that the ball detent in my M98 was properly seated. When I shot it I watched it fly out the barrel...Clamshells might be easier to assembly and produce, but they suck for taking apart the gun.
You won't have that problem with the STS. I used to own one. I liked it alot, but I traded it in on my cocker. I bought an RT 98 for a backup gun....just because they are tanks.

GOOD LUCK!!!

Thanks man... and Model 98's are so damn hard to put together...it isn't funny.

[adVanCedSh0t]

Ya Tippmanns are hard to field strip. I did it but i lost the spring that goes in the thing that holds the hopper up. So now i gotta use this wippy tape and a piece wire. But it works to play with so hey.

[Witt]

maybe if the screws werent allen wrecnh screws it might be a lil faster and easier.

[adVanCedSh0t]

I can take m98 faster apart then i can my Piranha PRO. All the screws on m98 are straight and you can get to them faster then you can on the Piranha.
