Hey...Im thinking of getting a shocker...but...I got some questions...

1) Timing?...could someone please explain this to me...the gun ill be getting would be a '99 so itd have the old board I think...I know how to time a cocker...and I looked on the smart parts site and it says just flip switches...a little more explanation would be nice?

2) Oil?...The smart parts site says to use some squeeze bottle of pink cream as oil...do you really need to use this...or is it like using crisco to make cookies? You can really use any shortener...but they say to use crisco for advertisement...u know.

3) Battery?...Whats the deal with the battery...one shot deal...costs like 20 dollars...why?!...how?!...what?! I dont wanna risk frying my board and install a 9v...but...whats the deal with the battery...and where can I buy them cheap...and how do they last?

4) Powerfeed and air assist?...What is the benefit? What is it? How does it work? What do I need for it if its already installed in the gun to use it?

5) Upgrades?...Im looking at a shocker with new solenoids, new pistons, powerfeed air assist, werm 2 bolt, 2x trigger with uncut frame, hogue grips, gadget grip, s/f lock, and otp max-flo locking ring....Ok...question is we already covered the powerfeed and air assist...but the other stuff...is that good or bad...and for some of it what is it...aside for the obvious ones...

6) Overall?...Is the shocker a good gun...what are its pros cons...basically...I wanna know if I should buy one.

Thanks a lot whoever answers this...I hope this helps other people too.

Oh ya...one more

Next) Velocity/Pressure?...How do you adjust velocity...is it only through reg pressure...if so...how should it be done? What do I do?

Im not an idiot...Its just...tech sites usually baffle me with their mumbo jumbo and crap...I prefer straight talk...ie...u twist this, and unscrew this...and bam

The velocity is done by screwing the bottem cap on the reg up or down. Always keep the reg at a very low pressure when you are done with it so that when you attach your air source you don't blow your solinoids because somehow your reg is set above 200 psi. As for your other questions I answered them all in the FAQ's page.
