Ok, where in the holy hell do I put the turbo valve? I thought I knew how to do it when I bought it, but I guess not.

Anyone care to point me in the right direction? I bought the Kingman International Turbo Valve and I have a TL+...see my description below.

take your marker appart...bolt,striker...ect.....

take off the ASA..(the thing that has the LPC and your regulator attached.....which I am sure you knew.but)...there is a screw under it you have to take out to remove the asa...
careful.... your valve pin with cup seal....cup seal guide ...and valve spring..will come out the front of the bottom tube when you thake your ASA off....



take off your grip frame..under the grip frame is a brass screw that was covered by the grip frame....take that out..and when you put it back ..only screw it til it is flush with the lower tube body..do not tighten it all the way in.,...

OK..

NOW from the back.take the back of a pencil.with and eraser and push the valve out toward the front of the bottom tube..

note that the larger hole is in the front and the smaller hole is in the back....be sure you install the new valve the same way.....or you can screw up the valve body....


now slide the new one in with the small hole on the side of the valve body facing down....


Put it all back together.check for leaks...you might have to seat your cup seal by firing it a few times...and leaving it under pressure for a little while....I would just change it to a lapco cup seal so you won't have to worry about cup seal leaks again..(it's a softer plastic so it seals better).......


good luck....
