you've got bad o-rings. You will need to pull the entire spring stack out, and replace the o-ring on the piston, then take a look at the rocket o-rings...and since you've got it all apart you might as well look at the other o-rings, and even perhaps the main seal if you've got the tool.

I had a creeping problem with mine, and it did the same thing. I had to replace the piston o-ring, and the 3 o-rings on the rocket.

yeah get the AIR Tool Kit, and you should be able to replace all the o-rings, as well as have the tools to inspect the main seal

always check the rocked o-rings after you pull the rocket out...but thats not the problem...its your main seal or the tiny oring when you take the 2 halfs of the rocket apart.

My experience with the AIR has been that every 5-6 months (depending upon use) will require a thorough inspect of the internals. At which point you may need to replace many/some of the seals.

The AIR is a great system however it's not 100% maintenance free like that of a screw-in.

I am just going to go buy the Angel AIR service kit. In the long run it seems cheaper to me.
1. Buy warrenty for $150, still have to pay for shipping everytime and the wait getting it back. You could end up sending it in 2 or 3 times.
2. Buy the service kit for $180, no shipping costs and can fix it right away.
