Air leak question

[DJQ1212]

Hey guys

I had a question about my a-1 I've had it since feb of this year and every so often when i cut it on air leaks in te breach area however... when i push the rotabreech inwards it would quit is this normal??? and if not how do i remedy this? thanks in advance

[pbstr4l]

so it leaks when u gas it up.. and stops when u push on breach?...

usually its the opposite.. it would leak when u pushed on the breach

Next time it happens, turn the breech release knob. If the leak stops then it is a good chance the ram is failing.

BoB, Im getting alittle mad about these rams.

Im on my second ram (stock one failed) and i currently have a new one from the factory.

Just the other day i gassed up and it leaked bad. Then i air it up again and it sealed.
Now it leaks for about a second then seals right up. I havnt checked the knob when airing up because the complete leak only happned once ( it leaks then seals up quick now, or at least the past 2 times)

Im not sure what could cause these rams to fail so easily. ( My pressures are all correct 270/57 dwell 6.5) I greased/oiled the shaft oring.
Just alittle anoying.

Bob- allittle advise so these rams last longer......?

I contacted Ken about this a couple of weeks ago and he sent me a warranty replacement.

I have a new A1 and the asa pin seems lodged in place. When I put a bottle on it just leaks, even after the asa knob is completely turned back off the gun. Any thoughts?

take the knob off and remove one of the orings pull the pin. grease it and reinstall it. see if that works or jsut get one to replace it

[jgethers]

Thanks... I pulled the pin out and the asa pin was pretty tight so I had to use something to knock it loose. Works wonders.. Appreciate the help.

I now have 2 A1's to use, my 05 speed, and a 01 Cut and Carved LCD.

thanks for the info...man that would suck it it is failing :( ...however if thats the case and im under my warranty and i have my original reciept where should I send my marker to get it replaced??? I live in ga and the cfoa will be close to me in the next few weeks could I take it there to get replaced? and either way would it be free and if not how much would it cost either way
