It is your exhaust valve, try putting a few drops of oil in your ASA and fire the gun 60 times or so, if it doesnt stop leaking you will have to get a new one.

could this problem be from low gass in my tank. I was only using like 50 psi at the time i didnt even know there was any in it then after i put it on it started leaking and i am now worried.

It can actually be from two things. Your Exhaust Stem, or the Exhaust Valve. Remove your LPR, and take a look at the Exhasut Valve Stem. Check and see if it is worn down at all. After you look at the Stem, remove your Exhaust Valve. Check the two seals on the Exhaust Valve. Make sure they are not torn, or broken.

It should not be worn if you just got it. But, you never know.

I had a leak too in my 2k3. I pulled the LPR and exhaust vavle and greased them really well. The seals were dry and the leak has stopped.

if i did this would it void my warrenty cuz i am new in the angel department. There isnt anything that i might break by doing this is there?

It should not void your warrenty. You should not break anything if you put it back together correctly.

A low amount of air wouldn't cause a leak. Something had to have been wrong, a seal is most likely going bad.....and will not seal everytime. I just had to replace my RAM because of a bad seal, and it would leak constantly. But at first, it started leaking where yours was......then I would shoot a couple times and it would seal, well after a while........it wouldn't reseal itself...so I had to replace the RAM.... I don't think a small amount of air would cause a leak, I think a seal/oring is going bad on your gun.....and Will seal sometimes like a Problem I had. You should strip your internals and check for O-rings, and take all old grease off and regrease them.....
