Yeah we have a 5 man tourney on Sunday morning, so help him out all you BKO guys in the ICD forums. Quick if you can cause he needs to find out what's wrong and then he still has to go get it fixed it he can't do it himself....bumpage

i think the BKO is trying to fix itself. 600psi is WAY too high, I dont know how its been working. 400psi is also way too high. you have the manual, reading the part about setting your regs for the correct velocity should help fix the problem.

set your inline at 270psi or thereabouts. set the LPR by turning it in until the solenoid leaks, then turn it back out a quarter turn. make velocity adjustments using the inline. if you have to get the inline over 300psi to get proper velocity, odds are there is a problem or you arent setting your regs correctly. good luck in your tourny this weekend :tup:

I tried to do that but i dont have the manuel and the air isnt going into the gun because when i take off the tank it sprays and it sounds like its leaking through the cradle and i have a fixed tank if that makes a different

Man you better get this fixed by Sunday....and Travis try to find the manual on google or something

We tried to set my reg to a lower PSI, and we cranked it down like 3 turns, but when we put my air tank the first 3 times nothing happened. The air didn't go into the gun at all and it wouldn't dry fire, and the PSI was at 0, or just above 0. I decided to try it one last time so I did, and the PSI was exactly at 270, but then we turned my on/off all the way in and it went up to around 400. We tried turning up the velocity, turning down the velocity, lowering the PSI, and raising the PSI but it didn't do anything. I took off my tank and my damn gun started hissing like a squeaky *** fart for about 10 seconds, and then when that was done, the damn PSI was still at 300 and not going down. Allright so if you know whats wrong with my gun, or ASA, or cradle or w/e it is tell me please. And, to change the reg settings, can you put it up and down while the tank's on, or do you have to take the tank off, adjust it, then put it back on? My gun sucks.:pissed: :eyes:

Need more info. Is your battery new, is the switch on, is it making any noiseat all? try ICDowners.

Turns out that my reg was broken. my shop is stupid so i had to pay about 130 to get a new reg

[lotus_esprit5]

yes you can adjust the regs while there is air in the gun.

if you ever need to look at the manual, there are manuals of all of ICD's guns on their website.

definately dont run it at 600psi this time, or else the same thing might happen to your new reg. 300 is the highest it should be, keep it under that and you're golden.

out of curiosity, how is it that your shop charged you $130 for a new reg? what kind of reg did they sell you? or does that include labor fees also?

[BoB DA RippeR]

They're selling him the empire inline reg, and its about $130 for the reg and installation.
