    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    At least I know that this FX Clown will make many kids happy by filling up their party balloons...

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    Finally! The PCP Gods took pity on me and the bloody thing was filled up with air. While using the compressor, it was leaking and leaking and leaking air from the barrel and at some point it stopped and I was able to fill it up. It remains to see if it holds the air or it will have a slow...

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    Ok, this is depressing. I received today the new valve seat and pin and installed them. Same exact thing! Air is gushing out the barrel (and the breech when cocked). Its like there is no sealing at all. The only thing I can imagine is a faulty main block. Not sure what to do next.

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    The local FX shop sent me a valve with a completely wrong size. The head was bigger and wouldn't fit in the valve housing hole. I thought I was doing something wrong. Even the seat had a smaller hole. They were obviously for a different model... Anyway, I've returned the items for a refund...

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    Sanity Check. First of all I think that this FX dealer sold me a used pair or valve parts for two reasons. First because they obviously have marks and dents and secondly is because when I first asked him for these parts, he told me that they will be available at the end of the month. But after...

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    Ok, here is how I received the brand new valve set today... I asked, is that how FX is selling them, and they said yes. I already did not like that. When I got home, I saw this on the valve seat: 🤬

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    My friend thank you for the encouragement but I failed... Same thing, air is rushing out the barrel like there is no seal at all. At least I tried. I am buying tomorrow the spare parts and will try again. Wildcat from hell...

    To test the theory, I resurfaced the Delrin edge with a slight taper and a rounded edge from 1000 grit to 5000 grit. I also polished the valve seat with polishing compound. I will reassemble the airgun (for the 100th time... :-) ) and see what happens.

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    I have ordered a new set. Hopefully I will have them tomorrow. The thing is, that I still do not understand how the valve poppet seals the valve seat.

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    All o-rings were from the FX reseal kit. All parts are installed, nothing is missing. The thing is that if we do not know how exactly the seal works, we will not be able to see if there is a problem there or somewhere else. I am trying now to find spare parts, valve pin and seat. My AEA HP SS...

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    If these are the two surfaces that mate together in order to seal, then if you have a look at the video below, they do not. The Delrin part goes inside the seat cone and does not touch the outer top flat surface of the seat cone. The seat looks perfectly flat. The Delrin has some damage at...

    I thought it was metal to metal... So its Delrin to metal. I have to check them again... Thanks.

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    Talking about imperfections just have a look at a brand new valve: I wouldn't call this perfect... would you? The thing is that you can buy from FX a valve pin or a valve seat separately. If FX was serious, these two parts should have been offered as a pair only. They should have been...

    The Delrin gasket on the valve pin you mean?

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    The regulator cannot be seized, because air passes through it and leaks from the barrel and the breech. Correct?

    FX FX Wildcat MK3 leak (cannot be filled anymore)

    Both. I have jet replaced the fill port valve o-ring. I haven't touched the regulator. It now fills up to 150 bar but with the regulator gauge showing zero and air leaking from the barrel...
