never grease the bolt it will gunk up your sensi rod you might want to try greasing your ram (u can c how to in the manual i gave u for the speed) it after u grease the ram the prob is still happining then try replaceing the bolt with a new one hope this helps!

Charge marker before every game, really. Use sensi 2 or 4 (I use 4), sensi 1 has been known to sometimes freeze for 1s! Grease the ram and put 2 drops of oil into the mini and shoot about 20-30 times to get the juices around the gun. After that wipe the bolt. The bolt will show some scratches that's normal.
Might be that your LPR pressure is low. If you can check that it's in the 75psi region.

set your gun up as follows. mode 2 rof 15 dwell 12 lpr 70 input from your max flo 400 .if it breaks paint there you may have a problem.if it doesnt its in your set up.those settings are safe.by the way what hopper are you using?
