Okay guys I new so inform me if I am not correct. I just bought an angel 1 about a month ago it only had 2500shots so i figured it wasnt used to much. But It has leak I havent had time to play yet so I figured that I should fix it. The leak is in the very front of the gun below the barrel. I am think its an exhaust valve? Anyways how hard are these to change there is no angel tech in my state so I will be fixing it my self. My other gun is an ion and ive done almost everything myself so I not dumb. Just let me know.
Thanks,
Cameron

Could be the exhaust valve. Check out this link...its a great diagnostic from APS themselves and helped me in the past.

is it coming down the barrel from the inside or is it below the barrel on the out side? if its inside then it may be the valve or the ram. higher chnace at it being the ram. i think people have problems with those then anything else on the marker. good way to see which one it is, is to open the breach stick a small paper strip in there and which one it blows away from then thats where it coming from. if its coming from the ram then pull it out and replace all the seals. and if that dont fix it then its probly bad. if its coming from the valve first try putting a couple drops of love juice in the asa and a few drops in the top of the valve where the breach seal is and dry fire it if you can. if its the valve it may just be sticking open to cause the air to leak. if that dont work then pull it out and inspect it and replace as needed. hope this helps!
