shocker lube is fine, check the manual it probably tells you what you should lube

If you have an internal leak I would start with the valve stem. Replace, afterward, the LPR o-rings, and the valve seat o-rings and lube all of these parts. Let us know from there.

well i took my back plate of, and its comeing from there, i think its the 14 way gasket. but i read a thread and Ken Crane (the best angel tech imo) and he said i should check the ram orings cuz they are reall tricky
Yes lube the ram orings and shaft very well before insertion. I know that sounded dirty but i was being serious. I would also lube the Valve and LPR rings well. Don't replace the gasket- It usually NEVER is the problem and is a pain to seat it right.
After all is installed run some oil through it and dry fire it a lot.

well, i took off the 14 and did change the gaskets but it still didnt stop leaking, and im pretty sure that that is were the leak is at. BTW, i ended up ripping of one of the switch wires so i now have to solder them

Well, i got good news and bad news. first the good, i just soldered my switch back together, now the bad, i just burnt my index finger. And more bad, my gun is still leaking, so do you all have any suggestions on what it might be

Hey cody, i had the same problem, Im excited because i think i may fix yours and i know how happy it will make u cause it made me very happy. Check the tiny oring behind the snap ring. Mine just needed to be lubed and had a bit of debris in it.!
