Ok I've had my imp for a little while now. It's a "under the grip" regulator and NOT a vertical maxflo one. I just got one question: I have to do that "O-ring trick" thing and I do that and everything goes all right. I got my pressure at 150 or so, and my dwell is all set and I'm shooting 280 fps. everything is good

But when you listen closely to where the threads of my HPA tank screw into the maxflo, there is a tiny leak. It doesn't really affect my velocity,pressure, or performance of my impulse but it does leak the air out of my tank slowly and it pissed me off so bad ! :)

does anyone know how to stop this anoyying little leak? thanx

p.s. My gun work's fine and I don't think it's the solenoid or any of that sutff. And my tank is screwed in all the way. (no I am not a n00b) :laugh:

Try a good clean and lube of the Max-Flow. If that does not fix it, you might need to get a Max-flow repair kit and start replacing o-rings.

Either that or remove the o-ring trick, you have a Max-flo with an on/off and I dont think you would need to have that extra o-ring in there
