Mini pressure problem

[yimmmy]

Hi ,
i have a problem with the pressure going into my mini , im using a 3000 psi Hpa tank, and this is the second time ive shot this gun , the problem is the pressure going into the mini drops after every shot and i cant get more then one shot out at a time with out the ball dropping in front of the gun or it not even coming out,
ive changed the pressure on both screw top and bottom of the mini to evan it out but it didnt work so idk what to do
thanks.

i dont think the mini runs on low pressure tanks if thats what you hav but im not 100% sure on that.. might be a problem with your soleniod also.. have you always had this problem w/ it or has it just recently started?

No, look up your information if you dont know.

The Mini can use LP tanks, and IMO they are much better to use then HP.

It wouldn't be a problem with the solenoid, the way the noid is desinged you couldn't have this type of problem with it. He said it is the second time he has used it, so im guesing yes.

Im going to assume you are using a Pure Energy 3000psi steel tank? Probably 48ci. I can tell you your exact problem, your tank isnt screwed in all the way. The PE 3000psi Steel Tanks are very tough to thread in, I used one for about 4 days of play and got rid of it. What is happening is the pin in the tanks regulator is not getting fully depressed causing a terrible recharge.

What I had to do was either shoot while screwing the tank in to relieve pressure (which sucked because it was still very hard to screw in) or have the tank empty first. Another option is to get the NDZ Inline On/ Off, it adds a little length to your tank but makes it so its not hard at all to screw in.

Thank you i will try that spyder, i havnt really taken notice to how it was screwed in there, but i have seen that when it looses pressure it comes loos, normal to get the tank off, but i will try thanks
