K, my 05 speed has been leaking. I have taken it into the shop about 4 times now. They get it to work when its there, I take it home and gas it up, air leaking. It's leaking in the back somewhere, not out the back plate but internally by the ram. They have replaced the solenoid. I have tried several tanks, all set at lower pressures (thought maybe my output was way too high, but nope)

Any thoughts from the pros?!! I'm kinda new to Angel. Give me a mag I can fix anything, but havent learned everything about this gun yet. Thanks

Have you or the shop tried to remove the ram and check it's o-rings? Maybe grease them up and try again? Sounds like the o-rings or internal ram seals are bad. Any idea of how old the ram is or how many shots through your Speed 05?

Also, you sure it is the ram area and not coming from the little hole where the valve air comes from to launch the paintball?

I imagine they've taken it out and checked the orings....they said last time it wasnt tightened all the way, so they truned it in a little tighter. Not sure how many shots are on it, do you need to replace your ram now and than?

I dont think its coming from the little whole...theres a lot of air coming out. If I shoot it slow the leak isnt bad, but once I start ripping, its getsd really loud till I turn my air off.

This is my first Angel, and I've only got to play about 1 day with it. I'm so frustrated with it I'm about to sell it and try something else.

Well, make SURE your ram o-rings are copacetic.

You are positive it's coming out the ram area, correct? And not the valve area like Trigga suggested? Valve leaks are pretty common, ram ones don't seem to be as [common].
