View Full Version : LCD sounds like it has no air...

I turn my gun on and the screen turns on, nothing weird there. I take the safety off, nothing weird there. Then when I try to shoot, it makes that -phut- sound like when you're low on air. But, I just filled up. I did take my gun apart once, but I know for SURE that everything is in correctly other than having lost 1 shim (and it did this before I took said gun apart so I don't think that's it). HELP! I'm gunless until I can get this fixed!

try the gun with a different tank and hoses, if that solves it, then you know its either the tank or the hoses. If not then its probly the mini reg or LPR.

also, I had a friend whos dropforward was cutting off airflow to the gun, so that could be it also.

congrats, u just did what i had done to my angel! I had sent it to a friend of mine and i had screwed up my 14 way... he fixed that and i had also sent him a new ram that he installed. when i got it back it shot good as new. take ti apart, make sure u didnt pinch a wire, and if you didnt and the whole hose thing falls through, id say its your ram.

I'm guessing I pinched a wire, I tested the pneumatics with the little button on the top of the 14 way and it shot fine.
Edit: I don't trust myself to fix this, who could I go to?

whats your dwell @ it might be really low. making it cut air off before the ram has time to move

test your reg and LPR. To test the LPR u should have your reg set at 350 psi (i know its not the operatong pressure of the gun) and then put in or take out shims till the lpr pressure is about 83 - 85. its easy to make a reg tester and a LPR tester. if not just get a tool kit. since u lost a shim before and one now (if i read it right) it might affect the pressure of the gun, or maybe you put the spring pack in wrong.

I have a 3A 71/45, this is the tank i've been using it with ever since the first time I played with this gun (I played with it 3 or 4 times before I actually bought it and had no problems)

Only lost 1 shim, and I'm sure the springs are in correctly.
Thanks for all the flame free help, this is my first angel and... yeah, 'nuff said. =)

If you lost one shim I bet that is the problem. It looks like one shim but the oil makes them stick together.
You LPR [ram pressure] is probably too low now. Make sure its at 85psi, and your Dwell is 14.
