This was kinda weird...today at my field everything was shooting perfectly, tank was great, but besides that when I was dry firing it @ the chrono, the exhaust valve starting to leak right after I heard this slight "pop." I was really pissed off, my gun was shooting fine except that one leak. Anyways, eventually I put some love juice in it (like 7 drops) and it did no good. So when I got home being very po'ed, I eventually cleaned my gun. So then I just aired up my gun again to see if it would do it again, and it still did. However, after 50+ shots the leaking started to subside, and gradually just stopped all together. So then I shot like 300+ balls and not a single problem. What do you think went wrong? Cup seal not seating correctly? I ordered a new valve kit just in case...

Is it ok also to dry fire my speed, because I had been dry firing it quite some time before and it did no problems up until then @ the field.

dry firing the marker is fine...it's no different than what happens when you're shooting a long string of paint and the hopper runs dry...

Sounds like the Valve Seal or spring might have slipped off the "spacer".
