leak at the valve, help!

[KillerFlah]

After I installed the v2 kit, I was leaking at the valve. When I open the breech, there's a small hiss at the valve outlet and doesn't go away even after shooting a few times...any ideas?

Also, I set the LPR to 100 accdg to instructions and installed the LPR kit. It would NOT go below 60 without drop off...any help?evolve says I can lower to below 40...what others said was correct...LPR kit will not work...it's a real problem...

Mine had the same thing when I got my replacement cup seal. I took a few shots and the leak was gone.

screw the newton valve all the way so that it just tightens against the valve port, gas the marker up and leave for around 10mins, the valve seal just needs bed into your valve port. back the newton out and fire the marker until it fires, this should sort the leak out

the LPr differes from gun to gun we have one that run at around 35psi with no shoot down, others at 50psi and some inbetween. you need to set it to what ever works best for you then allow it to bed and readjust

Thank you very much. I'll give this a try. I'll post results next Tuesday. I'll be away.

I would not screw the valve in all the way but I would screw it in little by little until you no longer hear a leak and then add an additional ¼ - ½ a turn for added measure. I have the full kit but I am not too concerned about my lpr pressure so I leave the lpr cap off and adjust my lpr pressure the old fashioned way. As an added bonus, for me, I get more consistant shots and can lower my lpr as low as it will go without shot drop off or without ROF drop off, at least not noticable.

So you found that the LPR recharges faster without the Newton Cap?

[El Pirata]

Yes

[KillerFlah]

has anyone used the all delrin hammer and what's the feedback? is it better than the metal/delrin hammer combo? I would suppose that the all delrin hammer will have less kick...

[kevc2181]

I'm using it, and it has very little kick if almost none.

[Clowndog]

I am using the all delrin bolt. Havent even used the metal one. I havent had any problems with mine, except for some intermittent leaking from the "nipples". But that shouldnt be attributed to the bolt. :evilgrin: I have found that the Fly works really well, then has about 20 marker minutes of "weirdness" then back to singing along. Just pitching a small fit every now and then

its the hammer not the bolt... and i have zero problems with my all delrin hammer it does have less kick with it, but u have the be careful when u install it to set the ram far forward so the hammer doesnt break the bolt

[Clowndog]

opps my bad,, the all delrin hammer then, Mine was easy to screw on to the shaft. I just held the ram up and screwed the HAMMER on.
