I have a leak coming from under my bolt. The air is coming out fairly strongly from the hole that is closer to the barrel, not the line in which the bolt moves. what can i do to stop this leak?

thank you guys very much

ok, so how would i "place it properly"? and when you say oil it do you mean the actual valve stem or just putting some oil through the asa?

i really dont know how to place it properly.. my Euro leaked like that out of the box and all i did was taking out the valve stem and put it back in again. oiled in the little hole that the leak came from and dry fired. fixed it right away...

It usually the exhaust valve. Take it out and clean every thing off real good and put a couple drops of love juice on it and put it back it. make sure the tension spring that sit over it is centered and not cocked off to one side or the other. If it still leaks you might need to get a new valve or just deal with it.

i don't really know what its called, but the blue piece that the sensi rod goes through has a small o-ring on top of it, and if that's loose, you could leak down the barrel, i had that problem this weekend. good luck.
