does anybody have a link where it shows how to install a solenoid gasket on a 2004 bko properly? I know this may sound dumb but i'm having trouble dryfiring my gun. My psi is set between 250-275psi and whenever i try to walk the trigger the marker doesn't shot right and the pressure drops back down to 0 psi.

mmmmmmm i see. its probably not the noid gasket. a leaky gasket would, first of all, probably be heard, and second, would not cause the inline to recharge so slowly. your problem is either an HPR that needs to be cleaned, or a tank/ASA that is starving the gun for air. this is supported by the fact that your inline pressure drops so far down when dryfiring, showing that the problem is upstream from the gauge, not downstream.

first, make sure your tank is screwed all the way in. then make sure the on/off is all the way on. if its not all the way on, it'll starve the gun for air.

if the ASA is flowing fine, then take apart the inline and clean it. make sure to wipe off the piston and relube the o-ring on it.

that vid helped BTW :tup:

tank is screwed in all the way and so is the on and off. I switch the inline reg with my autococker regulator and the same thing happend. I relubed parts of the regulator but not completely. I guess I will have to take it apart completely and relube everything, ganna do it later cause i've been working for hours on this gun. thanks for the help though :)
