Help me quickly! I'd need to get my gun in tip-top order for tomorro!
Here's the problem:
When I turn on my air, I get nothing but *shhhhhh*.
Air comes straight out through the barrel.
PLZ help me... I'd have to play tomorrow :sad:

check your Ram o-rings.
Also check that your exhaust valve is seated properly. Sounds like your exhaust valve might not be seated.

Thanks Emmit.
It seems to be the Valve.
Got the huge leak fixed but it still has some minor leaking...
Any quick tips how to remove and clean-up the valve?

Take the macroline out of the minireg, put 2-3 drops of oil into there, reconnect macroline, gas up gun and dryfire 20-30 times. Sometimes the orings dry out on the exhaust vavle and cause it not to seal or seat properly. This happens alot when you dont use it much :)

And after your done using it for your tourney or practise or whatever your doing id suggest taking the whole thing apart and cleaning and oiling everything. It would help out with that minor leaking and will help with performance. If you are scared to take it apart to clean dont be, these guns are extremley simple to take apart, the pieces fall back into the marker like lego, and the manual is very helpfull with disasembley, cleaning and re asembley. Forgive my spelling, im used to using word processors for that stuff. And if you dont have an angel tool kit id suggest getting one.

Thanks to you guys. I finally got my angel working and I'm about to go to bed. Hopefully it will work through tomorrow, and then i'll just get a new valve stem (or sumting like that), cause it seemed to be kinda worn-out.
I ripped out my darlings guts to clean and oil then. Just like RonnyMcDYO said "these guns are extremley simple to take apart, the pieces fall back into the marker like lego"
I didn't have the WDP angel tool kit and got through the operation, but i think it would have eased my job a bit... some parts were kinda difficult to take apart from the "tube" they belong to.
again. Thanks to all of you who helped me out.!!
