well today i gassed my speed up for the first time, all ive done is adjusted the trigger nothing else at all. The leak comes from around the breach area, as soon as i turn my air system on. At first i thought it might have been too much pressure from the air system but i turned that down to 400psi and it was still leaking.Its not a tiny leak either, and i fired the gun to see if it would'seal' maybe but nope. Anyone know whats wrong, coz i mean this is the 1st time air has even been put into it.

Sounds like a bad exhaust valve. I see that you're in New Zealand, where'd you buy it from? You're going to need to get it replaced.

i had that same problem, if you were looking at your gun barrel to your face, unscrew the left side cap... inside will be a little missle looking thing a screw and the exaust valve stem.. that is busted.. look at the plasticd looking (could be grey in color or yellow) look for dings or dents or any little flaws.. thats the problem... i greased mine and it shot fine afterwards... get a replacements valve ste mthough to swap it if the grease doesnt work, i got my stem free from warped sportz and have the other one for a backup because when greased, it works... if you hear a "click " when you air it up the nyou are all set.. best of luck

Cap | Support Bobbin > Valve Spring > Valve stem.

Check the exhaust valve for any signs of damage. Re-grease it and insert if there are no signs. If your marker is still leaking, it's damaged and you missed something. :) Let us know.
